Hi Bailey,
Yes, it’s true, for many years the IO-550-F upgrade was indeed done with a 337 field approval. The -F model is actually very similar to the IO-520-A so there’s no changes to the airframe. Just new baffling needed.

Today, Lone Mountain Aviation as an STC for this upgrade: https://lonemountainaviation.com/ . Because of this, 337 field…[Read more]

Hi guys haven’t checked in but following the line the 145 is a bit tight I’m 5’11” and have just enough room to clear a headset My bird is 210hp which is really the best the bird is pretty heavy for a 2 seater grossing out at 2200lbs the useful load is not a problem i have 4 tanks 2 16gal mains and 2 8.5 gal auxs and can carry 2 200lbs…[Read more]

Joseph, I do same as you and say ICAO Mike two zero zero. But I would NEVER say similar to a Bonanza! Almost as bad as saying similar to a Cirrus! Yuk!

On long cross countries switching service areas ATC does morph me into a Mooney as per Ed on occasion. I do take exception with THAT as well, but just motor on along and respond back with…[Read more]

Anyone interested in an autopilot needs to view the thread by Mr. Peter Jensen titled “News Update”.

Stein Air is installing Garmin GFC500s into Meyers 200s. Details on the other post.

Hello Chuck. The 145 is such a cool airplane. You need to send a note to Jamon Pruitt that is a member on the site. Jamon has a bunch of planes including a 145 and a 200. His 145 is listed for sale here on the site in the classifieds. I’ve seen her in person and she’s beautiful. Like most of us, Jamon is an aviation nut. Give him a call and…[Read more]

Hello Thomas and Ed. I will check with Stein and get his thoughts. He still needs to get me an official quote so that I can send him some $ and save on some taxes leaving poor Joe Biden out in the cold. I’ll be happy to share the quote with anyone who needs it. Wish this site supported uploads of photos and .PDFs so that we could all share.…[Read more]

A quick follow up to Mark’s quick follow up post…

Peter, welcome to Meyers. You’ve been active on the forum for only a month and have already bagged a unicorn. Holy $#!+ !!! Your new Meyers family has been agonizing over how to achieve what you have done for years. If you do a search you will see the many different posts of false starts on how…[Read more]

Did Barg and Jones fix you up, Jeff?

Andy, I didn’t realize that you were of the Betzoldt lineage. I was already happy to see you in Flip’s plane, but now I’m even more excited that Meyers is embedded into your DNA so deeply. Can’t wait to meet you. Tell Fred that Karen and Ashley say hello.

When I started out in the 200 I had less total time and 200 time than you do now. My…[Read more]

Hello Bob and thanks for sharing some of your Meyers journey with us. Dean, Mark and Ed have answered all of your questions, but I thought I would add some details.

When you buy one of these planes you are really buying into a family. The Owner’s Association is very strong and even safely met this yer in Sedona despite the virus. You will…[Read more]

Good afternoon Chris. Karen and I were unable to make Sedona due to Hurricane Laura direct hit. Both planes damaged, OTW extensive 200 will just end up with a new paint job.

The folks that did attend voted for Fredircksburg, TX and the Hangar Hotel as the 2021 fly in destination. Steve Freeman couldn’t run away fast enough/is too polite so he…[Read more]

Mark, Contact Steve Freeman or Phil Hart. Click on Members from the menu above and you’ll see them. They have a cool design that has a fluted neck which keeps water intrusion out. When we rebuilt the engine in 749C we changed all of the hoses and pulled the tanks. Wish I’d know about it beforehand. My plane rarely sit out except for Oshkosh…[Read more]

Our OTW also has the aluminum wing walk area. I do not believe that it is original. Send an instant message to Jim Jones (in this site’s directory) and either he or Mike Barg will know for sure. If you could, please post back anything you find out here to the site for the benefit of all.

Hello Ed,

I’ve tried all kinds of combinations as I’ve upgraded iPads over the years. I’ve always used the full sized iPads and have them linked to the GTN 650 via a flighstream 210. After having tow RAM yoke mounts that I loved on the older iPads I was disappointed with the fit of the iPad Pro mount. I was going to switch to their X Mount to…[Read more]

Welcome, Doug,

What is you mission for your aircraft? Whatever it may be, a 200 can probably fill it. My wife and I race ours (we’re the current Spot Air Race Leauge champions for production aircraft), I use it for cross country business travel, we’ve camped out with her at MAOA Member Steve Freeman’s air museum and last weekend took our…[Read more]
