Are you using FSX standard or Acceleration? I seem to remember this being an Acceleration only plane.

According to Aircraft - Listing - Default Types (FSX), the Maule is in some versions & not others.

According to the chart you need the "Deluxe" or "Gold" edition for the Maule to be flyable :D

So, to confirm...
Standard FSX: No Maule
Std + Deluxe = Acceleration: Yes Maule
Standard + Downloaded Maule: Yes Maule

I use FSX SP1 SP2 -- Thanks for sharing that with us! Most of us do anyway, but unless you have Std FSX + Acceleration... See above!

I'll look for "another" Maule, since I had troubles with Acceleration pack and will not use it no more. Thanks for everything :animals-chickencatch:

Well: something is going wrong. I made a clean installation of FSX and then, Acceleration. The fatidic Maule is there, but remains invisible :o

If you have FSX Standard Edition the Maule is AI Only. It will not be listed on the Free Flight Select Aircraft menu. It is not included with Acceleration.

Well here, lets compare some Files ,

this is my Default Stock FSX Gold Acceleration Maule Aircraft CFG File enteries - on my other computer / not my main Flight Sim computer.

compare you Maule CFG Enteries to this one , and pay close attention to the

this 1 is for the wheeled version -

[fltsim.XXX]

SIM=

Texture=

UI Manufacturer =

---------------------------------------------------------- }

[fltsim.0]
title= Maule M7 260C paint1
sim=Maule_M7_260C
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=1
kb_checklists=MauleM7260C_check
kb_reference=MauleM7260C_ref
atc_id=N72163
ui_manufacturer="Maule"
ui_type="Orion"
ui_variation=" White, Red, Gray"
ui_typerole="Single Engine Prop"
ui_createdby="Microsoft Corporation"
description="Maules are rugged and simple.

------------------------------------------------------
SKI Version


[fltsim.0]
title= Maule M7 260C Ski paint1
sim=Maule_M7_260C_Ski
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=1
kb_checklists=MauleM7260CSki_check
kb_reference=MauleM7260CSki_ref
atc_id=HB-HWN
ui_manufacturer="Maule"
ui_type="Orion on skis"
ui_variation="White and Yellow aircraft"
ui_typerole="Single Engine Prop"
ui_createdby="Microsoft Corporation"
description="Maules are rugged and simple.

Again pay close attention to the

Sim= entry ??

UI Manfacturer = Entry ??

on all the Maule Entries listed in the CFG File , see if theres anything matching up or not matching up with this one ??

Also take a close Inspection of each Aircraft Texture FOLDER , and make sure they are named properly , and that they match up with how the CFG File lists them under the

Texture = Entry ???? {------------ this has to match exactly to the T - how the Aircraft Texture Folder is titled / called , exactly to the T, including the (. period) !!!

leave that Period . out and nothing will show up,, been there found out . :( :oops:

Other than that I don't have a clue what else might be the problem without being right there in front me to see and inspect it for myself,,,

maybe you could send in some screen shots or a good video for us to look at maybe ???

Further MSFAA/CIA Investigation Reveals this information :


One of the bugs, that occurs only in the "Standard Edition", is the "Maule Air Orion aircraft" used in the mission has "missing gauges" and "other problems", as it is a "Deluxe Version-only" aircraft.

Heres the Different versions of all the FSX Versions starting with the most basic version, working to the more advanced version.
