Isnt there a supervised solo for situations like this? An instructor
is onbord to supervise the solo flight, but it still counts as solo?
I think the school I went to did this, ill have to look it up.

solo is defined in the regs, and that means noone else on
board (the only exceptions I can recall concerns airships);
Now, the British on the other hand have some weird logging
regulations that include a Pu/s (pilot under supervision)
different from instruction; is this what you had in mind?

I think it was just the schools policy for timebuilding in their multi.
No solo flight, they had supervised solo's. You had to take one of
their instructors along.
