Does Soaring instructon qualify as a BFR?

At BFR time, I always try to do something different.
Does this qualify?

Maybe

Flight Review must be acomplished in an aircraft for which you are rated. So if your license says "glider" as well as "airplane single engine land" then you may ask the cfi to sign off a flight review conducted in either.
But if you do not have a glider rating, the answer is 'no'.

No. Nothing counts as a BFR anymore because they don't exist. Now it is just a Flight Review (which happens to be done on a biennial schedule, go figure).

Glider instruction does not count. However if you pass a check ride to get your glider rating (or any rating, sea, multi, multi-sea, instrument, commercial, etc, etc.) it negates the need for a Flight Review.

Yeah, that. Just get the rating. It isn't that hard. Even a 16yr old can do it!

Odd. In Canada, "instruction towards a license or rating" counts for our BFR equivalent. Night rating, glider instruction, etc. all qualify.
