Thanks for the reply. Ya I had a feeling that I couldnt grab guages and drag them over to another monitor, but thats cool, I will just have to get used to not having that.  I just like having the alt, attitude and speed indicated on a second monitor for when I am outside the aircraft in 3rd person camera :)

I had a feeling the altitude AP function was pretty basic.  I'm just used to dialing in my altitude when climbing and decending and hitting the button.  I noticed also that usually 'shift + /' arms the auto speedbreak upon touchdown in aircraft I usually fly but I think the 727 is too old to have the 'auto speedbreak' armable? And you have to manually pull the speedbreak when touching down?
