I have a big question that I never received a reply to, how can RD hover when her wings dosen't make it up to the requiment to hover? A hummingbird, needs about: 80/wingbeats/sec and she does only 2-3/wingbeats/sec. Just two words, buck logic. :-/

Actually, I agree with Ramza on this. Each type of pony has their own form of magic; and pegasi's extent to affect their flying ability. EDIT: Zephyr, you ninj- BY CELESTIA YOUR AVATAR!
I wonder how a pegasis can travel more than 760mph to break the sound barrier and emit a rainbow caused by some kind of sunlight and moisture simultaneously. Oh right, magic. And let's not even talk about Discord. Logic is for squares.
There's a page I follow on the Facebox known as Screw Logic, I'm Pinkie Pie, the point I am making here is that the "screw logic" bit applies to all ponies. You don't need logic when you have magic and are more than likely comprised of Dark Matter.
And what about the friction from the air, the SR-71 black bird was boiling hot after flying faster then speed... I don't even know.. :-/
This has /always/ made me brain hurt. And I still don't understand how dashie flew sideways in Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 at the start of the episode. Then again, the concept of magic aiding them in flying abilities seems legit enough....
It makes perfect logical sense. The air in Equestria is about 10 times denser. Thus, all the swimming through the air.
