About the Maule M-5

The Maule M-5 is a rugged four-seat taildragger built by Maule Air in Moultrie, Georgia, designed for backcountry operations where short, unprepared strips are the norm. Introduced in the 1970s as part of Maule's long-running family of STOL aircraft, the M-5 series earned its reputation with names like Lunar Rocket and Strata Rocket, reflecting its ability to leap off grass, gravel, and dirt in remarkably short distances. Powered by a 210-235 horsepower Lycoming or Continental engine depending on variant, the M-5 combines a steel-tube fuselage with fabric covering, fixed conventional gear, and oversized tires that let pilots land where most tricycle-gear singles fear to tread.

Its stall speed of just 38 knots in landing configuration and rugged construction make it a favorite among bush pilots, backcountry enthusiasts, and operators who need to reach remote airstrips far from pavement. The type remains in production today with modern avionics and refinements, a testament to the enduring appeal of simple, capable, go-anywhere design. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators over routes, with the largest observed operator.
