Hello Steve. Please contact Dr. Jamon Pruitt. He’s a current 145 owner as well as 200 owner. He did a great job of upgrading his 145 and can tell you about parts availability. If you talk nice to him he might even part with his gorgeous 145…

Hello Joseph. Perhaps member Dave Smith could help you out. He has many NOS parts. Contact him at davesf17@yahoo.com ,

Hello Thomas. There are so few of us that I doubt that anyone will do an STC, but the 337 process is moving along nicely after Peter. 2 more 200’s are currently being upgraded at Stein Air as I type. I am in line right behind them and hope to have her back with a shiny new GFC500 and twin GI275s for Christmas.

Thank you Mark! We look forward to seeing you.

Jim Jones and Mike Barg at the Meyers OTW repair Center in South Carolina can help. You can reach them on the site by searching in the members directory. We’ll all be at the fly in next month in Fredericksburg, TX next month and that would be your very best bet. There are 5 OTWs in planned attendance. As long as your Kinner parts don’t have…[Read more]

Joseph, I do same as you and say ICAO Mike two zero zero. But I would NEVER say similar to a Bonanza! Almost as bad as saying similar to a Cirrus! Yuk!

On long cross countries switching service areas ATC does morph me into a Mooney as per Ed on occasion. I do take exception with THAT as well, but just motor on along and respond back with…[Read more]

Anyone interested in an autopilot needs to view the thread by Mr. Peter Jensen titled “News Update”.

Stein Air is installing Garmin GFC500s into Meyers 200s. Details on the other post.

Hello Chuck. The 145 is such a cool airplane. You need to send a note to Jamon Pruitt that is a member on the site. Jamon has a bunch of planes including a 145 and a 200. His 145 is listed for sale here on the site in the classifieds. I’ve seen her in person and she’s beautiful. Like most of us, Jamon is an aviation nut. Give him a call and…[Read more]

Hello Thomas and Ed. I will check with Stein and get his thoughts. He still needs to get me an official quote so that I can send him some $ and save on some taxes leaving poor Joe Biden out in the cold. I’ll be happy to share the quote with anyone who needs it. Wish this site supported uploads of photos and .PDFs so that we could all share.…[Read more]

A quick follow up to Mark’s quick follow up post…

Peter, welcome to Meyers. You’ve been active on the forum for only a month and have already bagged a unicorn. Holy $#!+ !!! Your new Meyers family has been agonizing over how to achieve what you have done for years. If you do a search you will see the many different posts of false starts on how…[Read more]

A quick follow-up to this post.

This installation is a first example, and it took stein a fair amount of work with his FSDO to get it approved.

The best approach to discussing this option is to call stein directly and talk about the upgrade and the excellent engineering relationship he has with his FSDO. This is a great opportunity to put a…[Read more]

Did Barg and Jones fix you up, Jeff?

Andy, I didn’t realize that you were of the Betzoldt lineage. I was already happy to see you in Flip’s plane, but now I’m even more excited that Meyers is embedded into your DNA so deeply. Can’t wait to meet you. Tell Fred that Karen and Ashley say hello.

When I started out in the 200 I had less total time and 200 time than you do now. My…[Read more]
