I have adjusted the half turns slightly to get the pitch contlol pressure I like for take off and initial climb.
Mark Jensen replied to the topic Conversation in the forum Meyers 200 5 years, 5 months ago

Prior to take off, my partner would rotate the elevator trim nob full nose down and then back eight half turns. I have recently had the elevator trim reworked and adjusted according to specks. I now rotate full nose down and then back four half turns for take off. This adjustes the gauge where it should be for take off and is a little more…[Read more]

It wouldn’t be difficult to install them. There’s a steel hoop that goes over you, right in between the two side windows. You’d just have to cut into your roof liner.

Ashley Wade started the topic Turn & Bank Service in the forum Avionics – Meyers OTW 5 years, 8 months ago

OTW #40 has an A-11 military type turn and bank in each of the cockpits, one of which is inop. There is a port on the side for oil. Does this oil ever require servicing? I could not find a maintenance manual for the instrument online. Wondering if I can resurrect the inop and also keep the functional one going.

Thanks Meyers brain trust,

Ashley Wade replied to the topic Actuator Seals in the forum Hydraulic System – Meyers 200 5 years, 8 months ago

Hey Tom! Hope all is well at Honeapath. My A&P did the same as Ed’s and it has worked flawlessly for 4 years. The prior owner and I were plagued by our step. At one point before I purchased the plane the step actuator was disconnected and the door sealed up. That A&P recommended that it not be repaired. I bought the plane with the step inop.…[Read more]

Jim Jones replied to the topic Original OTW insturment panel layout in the forum Avionics – Meyers OTW 5 years, 8 months ago

The OTW manual contains drawings of how the panels were originally laid out, complete with placards. Most panels have been modified over the years, some beyond recognition! I can supply a manual or pics of my panel if that would help.

Hi,
I’m currently in the process of having N236M repainted and the paint shop was asking me if I had any specs on balancing the control surfaces (this apparently is something commonly done after painting). Thanks for any input.

Congratulations on the OTW restoration. My wife has 1941. I believe it’s the original config and instruments and I can send you a picture of it. First, let’s wait for Mike Barg or Jim Jones to chime in. They will definitely be able to help. If they are tied up and do not respond soon I’ll reach out to them for you.

Best,

Ashley
