Actually, you take the practical in an airplane. Your certificate will
include glider. Specificlly, my certificate says, "Instrument
airplane, helicopter, and glider". One of the methods of maintaining
glider instrument currency is completing an "Instrument Proficency
Check" in a single engine airplane.
