You could also do the FAA Wings program, or get an additional rating or higher level pilot certificate. But if you look up, you'll see the poster created a poll listing five possible choices, none of which by themselves qualify to meet the 61.56 flight review requirement. Of course, a flight review could be done in conjunction with any of those five rather disparate choices, but given the very wide range of possibilities listed, it's really a matter of what the OP wants to do with his flying, and there is no clue about that.What are the choices? Last I looked, your only choice was the instructor. The INSTRUCTOR has many choices.

61-98A was cancelled last year and replaced by 61-98B.AC61-98A provides the guidance the instructor should follow.

Since the late 1990s, Mary and I have tried to make each BFR unique. Our CFIs have always played along -- which is good, since their future employment depends on it.

If it were my personal review, I'd pick the Champ because I've never done tailwheel, but that's just me. If you think you'll be renting the 182, or SR20 in the future, maybe do that. I have never heard of a spin endorsement, is there such a thing?

I don't mean any offense, but if playing along with what you want to do doesn't let me fulfill my obligations with a sig in your logbook, then I'd tell you to find another instructor. All of us spent WAY too much time for that little plastic card to let the student dictate the extent of the flight review (I think "BFR" bit the dust about ten years ago).
Not that I don't try to accommodate, but we WILL cover all the stuff in the guide. Now, having said that, I have an ONLINE "ground school" that takes care of the one hour of oral, and the local feds have given me a nod on that. We all have our unique ways of fulfilling the requirements.

"biennial"I still call it a BFR, it's Bi-annual (every two years) and is a Flight Review
Thus -> BFR

I would have looked into a sea plane rating (ASES). Always sounded like a lot of fun.
