Thomas-I replaced all 3 when I did my FWF winter 16/17. I used MacFarlane. Really nice to have new stuff. I can send you the measurements my A&P took that we sent off to MacFarlane. My mixture knob was a mess so I decided to replace the knobs as well.

Dick,
Apologies for not getting back on here sooner, there were some long delays in the entire application process and some participants had taken options out on Aircraft only for the entire Vintage Air Rally to be delayed until November of this year (http://www.facebook.com/VintageAirRally/posts/711618692365677).
Along with that, although I was…[Read more]

Dean Siracusa replied to the topic Hydraulic aileron trim in the forum Airframe – Meyers 200 7 years, 6 months ago
Definitely check the rigging of the ailerons as well as the flaps. And, the flaps have a unique bushing on them that are asymmetrical. If one of them is replaced with an incorrect bushing, it may be a cause of your issue.
Also, since you have a D model 200, check the spring for the aileron trim which is under the front seat. Either remove the…[Read more]

Ed Pulliam started the topic Annual Inspection in the forum Airframe – Meyers 200 7 years, 6 months ago
Friends-196M just came out of annual. An item I bring to your attention and unfortunately I do not have pictures. The wing walk area is strengthened by 3 vertical steel supports that are welded to the tubing and riveted top and bottom to the wing surfaces. They are inboard of the flaps and can be seen when the flaps are fully deployed. All 3…[Read more]

Actually, that’s not correct. The aileron and elevator trims continue to function even with an autopilot installed and activated.
With the aileron trim, it’s force is very mild so it’s not an issue for the autopilot to override it. All it’s doing is adding additional pressure to the entire system to keep the wings level. And since it’s just a…[Read more]

Dean-If I recall, if an A/P is installed, the system then becomes inop so as to not interfere with the A/P servos, right?
Dan-does the bird have an A/P?

Are you talking about the plastic covers that are attached to the nose bowl itself? It’s just plexiglass. Some owners have purchased stock plexiglass at the hardware store and melted it on a stainless steel bowl in the oven.

Hi Dan,
The Aero-Commander built D model has a different aileron trim system than the earlier Meyers built planes. Meyers versions are indeed hydraulic while the Commander built versions use a spring system which is underneath the front seats.The Commander version isn’t very effective and I know of several owners that just never bothered…[Read more]
