You know using the autopilot in the simulator to just hold altitude is
one thing I haven't thought about. The only autopilot I have in the
'real' plane is a single axis (heading only) which I'm not using while
learning the rating. Very good idea!


I would recommend becoming at least familiar with using it IFR. The examiner
might expect you to use it, even. A little practice wouldn't hurt.
