I know there is a 727-100 FedEx paint in the free liveries but I want a FedEx paint in the -200 series of the 727. If there is one can I have a link for it? Thanks! :)

I didn't see it. I seen a KFC Petroyal B727-100F and a DHL B727-100F. But I may have to look again but on the other hand weren't to many aircraft from default.

Haha ok :) I got another quick question do you know how to operate the NAV/LOC on it to stay on your GPS route (the GPS that comes with the 727) like you do NAV/GPS in default FSX planes?

You need to switch from NAV to GPS mode.

Many of us have added a NAV/GPS Switch to the 2D Autopilot panel. Some have also created a keyboard command to the NAV/GPS Switch (I use CTRL+SHIFT+N).

This is how my 2D A/P Panel has been changed to add the (Cessna) NAV/GPS Switch:

[Window03]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=457,106
position=2
visible=0
ident=10005

gauge00=Captain_Sim.p721.P12!P12_001_ap,  30,0,427,106
gauge01=Cessna!Nav GPS Switch,  0,0,30,30
gauge02=Cessna!Nav_GPS_Annunciator,  0,30,30


You have to change the size_mm to be able to see the switches and the A/P and add the two NAV/GPS Switch.

Alright and when I do switch it from NAV to GPS I also turn on NAV to LOC? I was thinking just doing the keyword thing.

Yep. NAV/GPS switch to GPS, Autopilot Mode Selector to NAV LOC. It's that simple. ;)

Don't forget to turn the NAV/GPS Switch back to NAV when trying to capture the ILS/GS. I hate to count how many times I forgot to turn that switch back to NAV. :-[
