I just noticed that... in fact, it references 61.45 which is not in my
ASA FAR/AIM. I also states that a complex airplane is only required for
the take-off and landings portion of the practical test.

Actually, I just founf 61.45 in the FAR/AIN, it was just out of order. Anyway,
while not explicity stated, the requirement comes from 61.45(b)(1)(i)

Thanks for the input... now I have an answer for my instructor. hehe
