Thanks so much for this fine airplane, Tim! :applause:

These were some really fine airplanes but they just never seemed to be able to get production and marketing and all those things sorted out. That's a real shame as the guys that had them really loved them--quick and strong and good looking.

Yesterday I bought another single engine retractable and I sure like yours much better. Shoulda waited. :banghead: Today, I went through my airplane folder and deleted a bunch of planes I just don't fly, many of them payware, including that one I bought yesterday. For some reason, when I look at my airplane folder now, it has a high percentage of Piglet's Peculiar Planes left in it. :icon_lol: Thanks for sharing all your hours of work with us, Tim. :ernae:

cheers,
steve :wavey:

I just returned from my first ride with her.
Why to get angry about imperfect Commanders? You gave us a fine piece of artwork - for free! Thank you Tim.
This plane reminds me to my daily ride, a 20 years old Volvo sedan: sturdy, fast, built for eternity and with great comfort.

You made my Chrismas day! Thank you very much and Merry Chrismas.

Thank you for the great present Tim. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v64/GT182/Thumbup.gif And Merry Christmas to you and the family.

I second the motion for the medal to Tim for his great work. Is there a way Ickie you could possibly add one to his avatar?

@ Piglet: mine is a 744 16V - that are peculiar cars for men who like peculiar planes:costumes:
Thanks again for that fine Christmas gift. I took her yesterday for a night flight (thanks to Nils for the lights!) from EDLW to EDDG - superb handling characteristics. I really feel at home in that machine.:applause:

I used to have an old 84 Volvo 245 Wagon. Had to junk it due to rust but it still ran like a top and got around great in the winter.

Brian

To keep slightly on topic. I did few gauge swap arounds on my 200D, (swapped the VSI and VOR 2 then swapped the VOR 2 for the RMI out of the Barron. I added a default ADF to the pop up panel.

Tim .....
Got a problem .... The heading bug doesn't engage in the A/P. When tryng to fly a IFR flight I had problems with that and the altitude setting.
What am I doing wrong?

December 26th, 2008, 08:57
Hey just wanted to say thanks, awesome plane, flies quick but also can fly low n slow!!!

One issue you're probably aware of is the cockpit lighting. In the day if you turn on the lights it washes everything out....

Another I just discovered is the NAV1 HSI - for some reason I can't get the CDI needle to turn at all....NAV2 indicator is working but I can't find any sort of OBS knob for NAV2

i agree, it's a darn fine christmas present, thank you very much!

this little beauty is a real hot rod, and as such, should have a suitable paint job (what do ya say, repaint guys?) maybe some flames or something? :icon_lol:

now for my stupid question of the day:

i keep getting this warning buzzer that i can't seem to find out how to shut off. can anyone tell me what it could be? it comes on when i land.

The Meyers 200 is a wonderful gift, anytime...:applause:
Here's hoping that Tim continues to throw us a "bone" every once in a while...:ernae:

Thanks again Tim...

Piglet
December 26th, 2008, 20:35
Cheezy,
That buzzer is the gear warning. Pull the throttle back too far while the gear is retracted will sound the alarm. Common feature in GA aircraft.
There are entries in the .cfg file for setting/disabling the gear warning.
And for those with radio problems, there are entries for radios and autopilot as well.
It's all rather hit and miss to me, so bugs may pop up from time to time.

:redf:to be completely honest, i didn't notice it untill after i was taxiing to parking, because i am usually F11 view on approach. the only plane i fly from the vc is your aa-5b. for whatever reason, for me, the eyepoint in that one is perfect. i will look for the cfg lines for the gear warning. thank you for your patience with my question, and for another really cool plane for my hangar.

Yup I noticed that too but I can live with it.

I have had some 'issues' to deal with since Xmas (including having my wife rushed into the ER TWICE in the early hours of the morning over the New Year period) and to get a bit of stress relief I turned to FSX the other day and spent 4+ hours in the Meyers and completed 18 take-offs/landings in my tour of all the UK FSX airports. This plane is simply a joy to fly and it is rapidly becoming my favourite single piston engine GA in my hangar.
