Does anyone know of a source for landing gear placards? I need to replace those associated with my nose gear.

And sorry… I see I put Allclad not Alclad. Would mess you up if you’re searching.

I am one of the newest to the OTW’s. Sir John Lyons that posted above is one of the most venerable, having owned an OTW and a 200 for many years. His suggestion about the Betzold family is perfect. Many would probably like to see Fred, Dan or Linda’s response, so please post back here. The three of them are members. To contact them click on…[Read more]

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, 4 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]

Hi Ed,

I typically fly a little slower than most, but 100 mph on DW, 90 mph on base, and crossing the fence (just short of threshold at 85 mph works fine for me. I carry a little bit of power into the flare, and roll it off as the nose comes up. You don’t want to try to flare at 80 mph without any throttle, as it will sink through to a c…[Read more]

Does anyone have an approved 337 for a 4-point harness?

That’s very helpful! Thanks!

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, 7 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

Ashley Wade replied to the topic Actuator Seals in the forum Hydraulic System – Meyers 200 5 years, 7 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]
Tom Thibodeau replied to the topic Actuator Seals in the forum Hydraulic System – Meyers 200 5 years, 7 months ago

Robert,

I do have the part numbers and quantities required and multiple extra seals since I was sent a duplicate order. However, I am currently on an extended work trip and do not have access to my data or parts at this time. If you are able to wait until mid-March, I will send you a complete set of seals (or just the part numbers) at no cost.…[Read more]
