BFR for ALL rated aircraft......wtf

That might be what the FAA would "like," but it isn't what's codified
in 14CFR61, and it isn't what any of the CFI's I know practice. So I
wouldn't lose any sleep over it until I saw an NPRM.

However, it is kind of easy to see their point. As it stands, a BFR in
a Cezzna 172 clears you for another two years on your own in your
sailplane. That's reasonable. But on the flip side, a BFR in a
Schweizer 2-33 also clears you for another two years on your own in a
Beech Baron or an L-39 jet. That might be considered a little less
reasonable.
