It has been a few years since I have sent anything to them, but they were good then.

The white lights would be mounted under to illuminate everything below in white light. They may have been removed by a previous owner? Hopes this helps. Ross

The second position for your panel light controls white light bulbs (four?) under the glare shield. Your bulbs may be burned out or a power wire detached. Ross

I personally like the lower cabin height of the A/B models but we don’t have the flush riveted wing. I was told that when the Meyers factory was racing the 200 that they exchanged the wing for a flush riveted one and it didn’t make any difference in speed.

Plenty of good advice from the other owners. I would add that before putting the gear handle in the down position that you put it in the up position. That way the gear lifts up off the locks and it’s easier to select the down position. Please let us know how your ferry flight home went.

I soak them in a small container of 100LL overnight and the rubber on the caps tend to swell up. You can try it but you might need to tighten them also.

My engine was sent to Lycon for head work and puts out 335hp. Fuel burn increases but climb out is way better as is cruise. I’ve owned this Meyers for 30yrs now and every flight really is fun. It feels so nice to fly as you 200 owners already know!
