Default Adding on airplane

Would you need to have 90 day endorsements to fly solo like a student
(power) pilot?

Just take your Private (or higher) glider certificate to any flight
school, take instruction, and get signed off to solo an airplane. At that point
you are not a Student pilot, yet you are legal to fly airplanes solo forever as
long as you keep a medical and otherwise stay current. (That said, many
instructors will not give you an unrestricted signoff.)

Of course, from there it is a small deal to continue on and take your written
& checkride and have it done with.
