I have to agree with CG. When I learned ( although I`m really still learning! ) and soloed, I had to be able to safely set up my trainer, take off, fly a few circuits, land, and then demonstrate a deadstick. I thought those requirements were quite reasonable. I threw in a couple of loops and rolls for the heck of it but they weren`t required. I think demonstrating a knowledge of safety practices and basic flight skills is sufficient
