Thanks for the info. I was in fact using engine 3 with out ground power/air. It is strange that CS did not provide an APU on the bird. At least one 707 manual I have found shows APU controls on the FE console.

That question of adding an APU to the 707 has been thrown around the forum several times. If you do a search on it in the 707 forum, you will find out why there isn't an APU. I pretty sure it is because many of the original 707's didn't have them installed. Here is a quote regarding the APU on the 707:

the reason there is no apu on the 707 is that they weren't in commercial use yet military yes but civilian no because they were to big at the time.
