Belly pod for Maule?

Post by Sam Rutherford »

Anyone ever seen one?

Would be nice to have the wieght further forward than in the 'C' area of the aircraft!

Ever optimistic!

Hello Sam,

Sorensen Sprayers produced a belly tank (for liquids) for the Maule, but we never did a cargo pod.

Thank You for your inquiry,

John A

Sorenson is no longer in the belly pod business for general aviation, they have sold molds to individual up here who will probably never do anything with it... CAC plastics in Wasilla

is in process of certifying a Maule belly pod which he will custom build fuel capacity / cargo to customers spec. Not sure how far off from approvals he might be, but have heard he's got some prototypes and they're nice?
