Looking for parts list for nose gear assembly for N200D anyone?

hello Greg, thanks for your diligence and approval. We are now set. Thanks again Joe Gibbons. N200D

I agree with Dennis Martin. Landing isn’t the issue. Takeoff out of a short field is the pucker manuever.

After many hours of flight in my aircraft using the GFC500, I report satisfactory performance. The unit does exactly what it is expected to do. Approaches are rock solid. Everyone, experienced pilots especially, are impressed.

Lateral fuel balance is key. In fact, a limitation. The manual says that there can be mo more than a 15 gallon fuel…[Read more]

SteinAir installed a yaw damper, with FAA field approval, and unfortunately the Garmin unit was not up to the task. The servo was not strong enough to adjust for the torque on the Meyers. The yaw damper…[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]

Yes, there is a 337. I am hesitant to share this for a variety of reasons. Many parts were fabricated in house. To provide a parts list, and have other shops fabricate…[Read more]

Kevin,

I just had my Meyers weighed. ~ 830 pounds useful load available. My standard fuel load is a light top of the Aux tanks ~ 36 gals total, and about 8 gals in each main. I take off and climb on one main tank, cruise off the Aux tanks, descend and land on the other main tank. it works well for me.

Best, Peter

Pilot report.

A little background. I am a pilot, not any sort of technician. I have many hours of experience in autopilot operation. This does not make me an expert, just experienced. I do not know how autopilots are supposed to be perfectly set up. I do know what a poor/weak autopilot does, and how a good one performs.

In level flight, with a…[Read more]
