    We found a ‚replacement‘ and could help out if someone wants some spare.

    My 200C which I also race has the IO-520A with Gami’s and setup to cruise at 2350 RPM and what ever MP I can get which is obviously dependent on Altitude and other. Also run ROP. On average though, I cruise at 9 – 10,000 ft and avg. 21″MP @ 2350 @ 14 GPH which typically gives me around 186KTS True Airspeed. CHT’s are generally around 350 and EGT…[Read more]

    I have a 520a.
    Here in Germany 100LL is about 8$/gal, so we try to run LOP.

    With my very limited experience with my plane I just did 1 longer trip of 3hr 45 min to France. In FL 85 she took 12,5 gal/h for 140kn GS. Therhe must be some improvement.

    When she is back from the shop I will go for max speed ROP, Christmas is coming…

    Any more…[Read more]

    Question from a newbie: How do you run your engine to get

    a) The best speed(max power) in low and high altitude?
    b) the best economy (ROP or LOP)

    Doe someone have a scheme for power setting in different altitudes like some other types of POH provide or do you go by CHT and EGT.

    What are you racers seeing on fuel burn on a typical race.

    Richard E Russell replied to the topic Reasonable Crosswind Limitations for an OTW on pavement? in the forum Airframe – Meyers OTW 8 years, 2 months ago

    All: Regarding OTW landings, grass, hard surface runways and crosswinds – FAA certification of Part 23 (OTW were certified under CAR 4, the previous certification standard before FAR Part 23) is 15 mph ‘demonstrated cross wind’. Factory test pilots are required to certify all Part 23 airplanes to 15 mph crosswinds, therefore, it then depends upon…[Read more]

      Hi Richard,

      Yes I am!

      We get notified on the 1st December and so if successful then I would be looking to purchase one in December of this year. I would also…[Read more]

    Hi,
    While dismantling the cowling for new paint we found the glasses broken.

    Does anybody know of a source to get spares?

    Hi,

    I am in Florida at the moment an thinking about essentials for the Meyers to take home.
    I asked globalparts to offer a set of landing gear bushings.
    What else do you recommend to have in the parts-box?

    Thanks,

    Thomas

    Hi,

    Does anybody know if the air Kool scoop vent from various shops fit in the pilot side window?

    Would be nice for summer and taxi.
