I see no one has offered any help yet. I am leaving on a 2 week trip tomorrow morning, so I don't have time right now.

I am not an expert and don't really know if I am using the AP properly, but I can help to some degree. I figured it out mainly by trial and error along with some coaching above by Lou and Jet Pilot who are real world 727 pilots. Btw, I have the latest version of the 721 ---I think it's 2.4. If you have an earlier version there were some problems with the AP as I recall, in which case I won't be of any help.

When I get back if you still need help I'll do what I can to get you to a point that you get up and down using it. For starters though---there is no auto throttle. Power is manually controlled throughout the flite. The Heading Hold and Heading Bug work like the default planes. I suggest you play around with the AP by clicking on the various switches and knobs to see what they do. If you can work the AP on the default airplanes you can most likely figure it out.
