James,

Welcome to the Meyers website. You’ll quickly discover most Meyers owners are very proud of their aircraft. These machines are members of their families, and tend to stay with their caretakers for many years. We’ve cherished N2919T for 21 years, and acquired it from a gentleman and his wife who cared for it for nearly 30 years. The air…[Read more]

Thomas,
Sorry,I haven’t been on this part of the forum lately. I will check with my mechanis next week to get that info in case you still need it.

Happy Eastertime from Germany!

I wonder of we can group up to have SteinAir go for an STC.
If there is an STC, we would have less trouble getting this great AP into our planes. For me in Germany, as an EASA reg, 337s do not work.

And going back to N-Reg would terminate the world spanning Meyers distribution.

Let me know your thoughts.

Thomas.

Hi Dean, I am interested.

Hi James, I am an old F4 guy myself and I mean old. I have owned my 200D sense Sept 2001. So far I have not had a problem with parts. Many parts are common to other aircraft of that vintage and there is a source for parts that are unique to the 200s from stocks that were acumulated by an idividual who specialized in Meyers. Other parts can…[Read more]

Update: While looking through the paper documents for the Annual I found a spare set of keys.

Had our local locksmith (Mr. Minit) make new ones ( 3 sets). He immediately identified them as airplane keys. Had to order them from Italy…

Thought the Meyers was the Jaguar of the skies, not the Ferrari.

@Mark: Can your A&P give a source for the…[Read more]

My A&P mechanic replaced my lock with a new lock and key with no problem.

I have not dared without a plan for a fix.

Hoping someone had done this before…

Robert,
To clarify, each strut requires 3 seals as listed. If you are able to disassemble one strut, you can verify the dimensions prior to ordering.

VR, Tom

Robert,

My notes from Bill Perry show:
2ea AN6230B-4 (MS28775-226)
1ea AN6227B-30 (MS28775-327)
For all 3 gear struts.

All are available at Aircraft Spruce.

Erratum: My Meyers has differential braking! I was so used to non-differtial that I always pressed both!
Had the hydraulics of the gear overhauled! My mechanic was impressed how well and strong manufactured the cylinders and the whole system is.

Does anybody know if the flaps have a different travel to compensate for engine torque? I thinks my…[Read more]

Mark, Sorry I didn’t see your question before. I have had to replace two caps because the rubber got old and stiff. My mechanic found replacement caps at McFarlane Aviation. He said he will get the part number when he gets back to town. The caps he found required two minor modifications. First, the metal plate on the top has a larger…[Read more]

Hi Brent,

Glad to hear your flight home went well. I am curious about Thomas’s comment on the brakes as my 200D does have differential braking.

The techniques for applying power and rudder for take off also apply to a touch and go. That seems like common sence but I had an early touch and go get my attention.

I reccomend a flapes 20…[Read more]

Hi Bob,

I have owned and enjoyed my Meyers since September 2001. The Meyers 200 is a great airplane. Unfortunately, I am dealing with the FAA on some special issuance issues. I still have my class three medical but at age 77 I have put my aircraft, N2983T, on the market.

Concerning your questions, take off and go around take some getting used…[Read more]

Hi Doug,

I have owned my 200D sence September 2001. They are great airplanes. They are especialy good for cross county flights with good speed and the capability for long legs. I usually fly at altitudes from 7 to 9,000 MSL. My opinion is that my Meyers is very stable, it can be easily trimed hands off, and it handles turbulence very well.…[Read more]

OMG, yes that’s so sad about the hurricanes. And sorry to hear of the Meyers’ damages. I’m sure there are many other more pressing and important issues there than our airplanes. Best of luck in recovering from that terrible weather onslaught.
Thanks though, for some information about the recent goings on. It is always fun and stimulating to…[Read more]
