When I taught fixed wing, my requirement was to do spins even though
the FAA did not require it. And depending on the student, I would take
them up in a Citabria and show some limited aerobatics. Was not a
requirement, but everyone of my students gained confidence.

Damned straight! There's nothing like getting out of extreme unusual
attitudes with an instructor for impressing on the student that they "can"
do it safely. Maybe it's not required by the FAA, but I bet it saves a life
somewhere along the way!

Way to go! thumbs up!
