Pretty much any time I've seen the _superpower_ of flight depicted, it has been essentially reactionless. You just decide to fly and you go. No wings, no thrusters, no pushing against anything; you just go. And you can take stuff with you!
Having the superpower of flight would let me do things that we simply can't do with technology. Say you can fly carrying as much against gravity as you can reasonably carry when you walk...and can continue to accelerate with the same force even off planet or in orbit....
