The Flight Review credit is only awarded in the aircraft you are rated. An airplane rated pilot, completing wings courses for gliders will not apply to the flight review needed to solo the glider.

This is fascinating stuff. As I read the WINGS documentation from the FAA, and 14 CFR 61.56(e) the WINGS phases are not a way to accomplish the Flight Review but rather are an alternative to the Flight Review. If the WINGS path is chosen the "Flight Review" requirements do not apply. On the other hand I am likely to be wrong about anything I interpret from the FAR's.
