Maule M-4 history and development
M-4 is a certificated member of the M-4 Series family. This model is listed under FAA TCDS 3A23 - Maule M-4 series. The family includes model-specific differences in engine installation, maximum weight, fuel system, landing-gear or utility configuration and approved equipment. preserves model identity and certification context while model-specific values that have not been verified remain unverified values.
Maule M-4 fuel capacity
exact model-specific fuel capacity / usable fuel has not yet been verified from the applicable certification record, approved flight manual, or manufacturer data. Do not infer it from a neighboring Maule model or suffix.
Maule M-4 model applicability and configuration
Verify exact model designation, serial number, installed engine, fuel system, landing-gear/float configuration and approved equipment against the applicable certification record and individual aircraft documentation.
Maule M-4 weight and balance
Use the exact model/serial-number loading data and the individual aircraft's approved weight-and-balance record. No baggage limit is inferred from a related Maule model. The exact model-specific maximum takeoff weight / gross weight remains unverified until the applicable approval section is verified. Operational loading must use the aircraft-specific empty weight, CG, station arms and limitations. Use the approved aircraft-specific documentation and current weight-and-balance record for operational calculations. WBcalc does not currently provide a model-specific M-4 calculator.
