Default FAA sticks to its guns on not allowing solo glider flight for outof currency power pilots

Wings credit for a flight review. You can't get a "flight review" in an aircraft you are not rated in.
If you could, then a non glider rated pilot could get his flight review 61.56 sign off in a glider and not have to do it the long "Wings" way.
Wings requires 3 ground training modules and 3 hrs of flying.
A "simple" flight review is 1hr ground and 1hr in the air.

61.56(c)(1) says it is in an aircraft you are rated in.
