Hey,
I was wondering if it was easy enough to put, say the default 737-400's autopilot on the panel of the Aeroworx King Air? Actually on any aircraft for that matter. I'm not used to using any other autopilot (well at least one from a smaller aircraft), and I find it easier for the whole system to all be in one small panel. How hard would it be to modify an a/c's original panel to include this autopilot?

If you'd chosen anything but the Aeroworx model the answer probably would've been "No Problem".
I've transplanted dozens of gauges and icons into Perfect Panels for most of the aircraft that have dwelled on my computer.
New aircraft are simply aliased to the latest panel that suits.
However, payware people design their own custom systems and do not encourage internal tinkering.
Come to think of it, I do believe I've never sorted the King Air autopilot fully.

This may also help if people want to add a GPS to an aircraft (FS9) that doesn't already have one -
