Introduction
============

While using the amazing new 3D cockpit in Flight Sim 2002 I noticed just one sad thing.  Unless you returned to the 2D mode, there was no way to start you engines or to set your AutoPilot.

That gave me the idea of making 2 extra windows that you can (in this case) acces in the 3D mode by pressing
[ Shift+2 ] and [ Shift+3].  I had started on making this SUP and APP for the B 737 but those aren't finished yet because afterall I like flying the King Air much more.

In addition to the AutoPilot gauges, I've added the buttons for accessing the ATC window, which you can not acces by pressing any Shift+somfin keys (as far as I know).  And since I had some free space, I've also included the GPS and RadioStack buttons.

On the StartUpPanel I've addet all light switches.  I guess I've covered all needed switchable gauges now.

Installation
============

Make a backup of the original 'Panel.cfg' first if you prefer.  Unzip the 'Panel.cfg', the 'start_panel_bg.bmp' and 'auto_pilot_bg.bmp' into the panel folder of your King Air. Overwrite the existing 'Panel.cfg' and thats it !
