John Lyon replied to the topic Meyers performance in the forum Engine – Meyers 200 5 years, 9 months ago
We used to race each other at Fly-Ins. The late Doc Morgan usually won the “Scenic Route” award, in our long x-country (not pylon) races. For the benefit of the FAA and the insurance companies, we called them “proficiency exercises.” The most proficient pilot crossed the finish line first. One of the little secrets learned was that with a…[Read more]

@rgomoll Roger, I would advise the 5 gal. at a time method, since they’re all a little different, at least the Meyers ships. I got a 12” length of 1/2” balsa wood, added a firmly attached lanyard, and with a Sharpee labeled one face “M” (main) and the opposite face “A” (aux). Then I did the 5 gal. at a time separately fot the mains and the auxes…[Read more]

@goud9yahoo-com Doug, years ago when I owned #89, I went to a good local machinist with the worn-out part, and had one made. Short of that, try Mike Barg.

@edr Hello, Ed. Sorry to hear of your problems with the FAA medical. I still have one — I hope, actually I have an appointment with my AME this afternoon for a renewal — and did not have to sell N489C. I don’t think we own these airplanes, we’re just caretakers for the next person, and I was lucky to find Ray Ferrell, who will be just as dili…[Read more]

Back in the Olden Days (1993), Don Petty sent 200D windows, for making molds, to Aircraft Windshields, 10871 Kyle Street, Los Alamitos CA 90720, Tel 562-430-8108. It was then, and is now, run by Judy Gallo, and has been in business for 50 years. That was a long time ago, and who knows if they can do anything now, but it is worth a try if Cee…[Read more]

The whole spool valve was a vendor part, custom manufactured for Meyers. I would take the spring to a large dealer and see if they can match it. Century Spring Corp?

Re fresh air: at least in early versions (I own s/n 254) there is an opening at the base of the inclined bulkhead at the rear of the hatshelf. This opening is rectangular and about 3 sq. in. It exhausts cabin air into the tail cone, and modestly helps airflow through the cabin. It is often covered with upholstery. Mine has a cover perforated…[Read more]
