The white lights would be mounted under to illuminate everything below in white light. They may have been removed by a previous owner? Hopes this helps. Ross

My propeller governor is defect. I just get 2550 rpm on static or dynamic take off.

All the other performance data are okay.

I found as an alternative to overhauling the governor is to put a new PCU5000 on the engine.

Any recommendations from y’all?

I wonder of we can group up to have SteinAir go for an STC.
If there is an STC, we would have less trouble getting this great AP into our planes. For me in Germany, as an EASA reg, 337s do not work.

And going back to N-Reg would terminate the world spanning Meyers distribution.

Let me know your thoughts.
