737NG ACP ALT Selection

Hi all...

Can anybody currently flying the 737-700/-800/-900 let me know if, on your ACP, do you still have the NORM/ALT selection switch?

I understand it's operation, but noticed on our -700IGWs the switch has been removed entirely, together with all labeling, that is, an entirely new panel without the switch.
The procedure now is to pull the appropriate (i.e. C, FO or Obs) circuit breaker on the P-18 panel, which will have the same affect!

In my entire flying career, with the possible exception of the RAWS WARNING c/b in the P3 world, using circuit breakers as switches was a no-no!

Any comments on your equipment.

Cheers...FD...
