Re: Best Glide Maule Question
Does zero flaps and full nose up trim give best glide, or very close to it, in the Maule?
Lynn Sanderson (Dirtstrip) passed away from natural causes in May 2013. He was a great contributor and will be missed dearly.

Not necessarily full nose up trim.
Trim will depend on gross weight and where the load is distributed in the CG range.
