Mark, Contact Steve Freeman or Phil Hart. Click on Members from the menu above and you’ll see them. They have a cool design that has a fluted neck which keeps water intrusion out. When we rebuilt the engine in 749C we changed all of the hoses and pulled the tanks. Wish I’d know about it beforehand. My plane rarely sit out except for Oshkosh…[Read more]

Our OTW also has the aluminum wing walk area. I do not believe that it is original. Send an instant message to Jim Jones (in this site’s directory) and either he or Mike Barg will know for sure. If you could, please post back anything you find out here to the site for the benefit of all.

Hello Ed,

I’ve tried all kinds of combinations as I’ve upgraded iPads over the years. I’ve always used the full sized iPads and have them linked to the GTN 650 via a flighstream 210. After having tow RAM yoke mounts that I loved on the older iPads I was disappointed with the fit of the iPad Pro mount. I was going to switch to their X Mount to…[Read more]

Welcome, Doug,

What is you mission for your aircraft? Whatever it may be, a 200 can probably fill it. My wife and I race ours (we’re the current Spot Air Race Leauge champions for production aircraft), I use it for cross country business travel, we’ve camped out with her at MAOA Member Steve Freeman’s air museum and last weekend took our…[Read more]

Congratulations Brent and welcome to the family! I wish that you’d been able to make it to the annual fly in which was held in Sedona, especially since you were in Phoenix. My wife and I didn’t make it due to damages to both planes (a 200 A model and a Meyers OTW) by Hurricane Laura. Next year you will be able to fly back in to Fredricksburg…[Read more]

Thank you for your interest in our amazing planes, Larry! I’ll bump your request up the chain to get the word out to everyone. You’ll get some great stories.

Sedona is ON Hans! I hope to see you again this year. You’re becoming more of a regular than some of the owners, so you NEED to bite the bullet and buy one of these great planes. Mr. Lyon’s Red Menace was just added to the for sale section of the website…

The post for the fly in is making its rounds for edits and should go live tomorrow.

Welcome Andy. I took am glad that Flip’s plane is in good hands. I hope that you can make it to Sedona to meet some of your new family in September.

Your trim indicator needle should have full travel up and down the full range of the dial. I do this occasionally just to make sure it stays limbered up. It is very minimal travel with each twist,…[Read more]

Hello Mark! Hope to see you in Sedona, buddy. If Tommy T. Didn’t fix you up MAOA’s own President Mr. Ross Warner has everything that you need. He did a good deed and bought a huge stash of all types of placarding form a former owner’s estate (can’t remember the details) who’d had them printed up. All great/original quality.

Hey Dan,

Work on Jamon Pruitt. Think he’s going. Only question would be ability to take 3 with AZ density altitude in September…
