Used Aircraft Guide: Meyers 200
A classic four-place retrac that will keep up with or outrun anything in its class. It has tank-like construction, but limited useful load.
Dean Siracusa moves right along in a Meyers 200D. Involve experts like him in your search. He’s flown 17 of them so far, logging more than 1500 hours in type.
The raw performance numbers of a Meyers 200 might resemble what you’d expect from the most modern single-engine piston speedster, even though the airplane is a product of the 1950s, and went out of production in the 1960s. But don’t turn a nose to these old gals because of their age. We’re talking cruise speeds that can flirt with 190 knots, an airframe with an exceptionally crashworthy race-car-like tubular roll cage and understructure, no history of inflight breakups and no FAA ADs against the airframe. Decent ones sell for shy of $80,000.
