I have added a simple gauge I created to monitor autopilot status to my downloads page. I created it while developing my a/p gauges. It is very hand to have a gauge that will display autopilot figures and mode but not be able to affect the a/p settings.It is also handy if you find the ap settings hard to read on the aircraft's a/p.Autopilot Viewhttp://www.city-gallery.com/vpilot/download.htmlSteve

THANK YOU!!!I just love these kind of addon XML gauges -- they are probably not realistic in a "real world" sense , but allow all kinds of facilities that real world aircraft panels don't.Barry

I've seen instrument repeaters made by some homebuilders for their a/c. A second RPM repeater, etc. to go along with a crowded LCD display for example.Steve
