Thread: Whats your flying skill level?

Hey DV members, i thought it might be cool to have a flying skill poll where everyone can post their current skill levels of flying in LD's.

1 - I can't fly yet
2 - I can hover slightly but can't maintain it
3 - I can fly quite high but cant maintain it
4 - If i concentrate i can maintain flight/hovering
5 - I can initiate flight anytime i want
6 - I can fly in a variety of styles
7 - I can fly at exceptional speeds
8 - I can fly almost anywhere i want
9 - I can fly anywhere, anytime at any speed. I am god of flight

Please pick which level best describes you, noting each level includes all the levels before it.

Also, if anyone has any awesome ideas for flight, or has had some cool experiences, please post them here.

uh oh screwed the poll and it wont let me change it...how embarrasing

Level 1 - I still need to get used to the land of lucidity.

level 9-I AM A FLIGHT GOD lol

Lol, do non-lucid dreams count? I haven't thought of flying in a lucid yet. (just never occured to me when I was dreaming) But if non-lucids count I would probably be a 2.

Level 9, if you're interested you can check out my flying in my lucid dream journal (link in my signature) I fly in most of them.

First try I flew high, but later on I started to fall. So I guess level 3.

Level 2. My flying dreams have been low-lucid so as soon as I get to a certain height I get nervous and fall. Plan to work on it more, though.

I would say a level 7 or 8. Sometimes my flying can really suck and I can hardly get off the ground.

8, I guess. Once I get lucid, I have no troubles with flying at all. I can't say I mastered it, trough, accidents happen once every a while.

I'd say 8. Its amazing how fast you can get good at flying. I only havent went super high yet.

when I fly I don't really control were I go..I guess I could but I never think of it

i said seven because it depends on my mood in my dream to how well i can do things. most of the time i can fly pretty well.

Cheers for all the replys guys, looks like a fairly even distribution so far, with a few people still having trouble getting off the ground.

For those that can't fly, i can't reccomend enough that you keep at it, it's by far my favorite LD activity.

As for my own level, i would probably say 7, because i cant get into space yet.

My favorite way to fly, is by using telekinesis on myself. I always suggest to people to learn to use TK, then just use it on themselves and be an instant master of flying.

Granted I haven't had a chance to try in months, back in the day it was probably a 2-3, I chose 2 for this poll.

I never have problems unless I'm trying to fly too high. Never been successful flying to anywhere above earth's atmosphere. Not Yet, anyways!

I thought you did the task where we flew to another planet?

Around a 6 - I can always fly once I am lucid, but oddly enough I frequently do not become lucid until I am flying and then I realize I'm dreaming - then I usually increase speed, etc.

whenever i fly its ALWAYS lucid!!!!
i thikn once i went into the atmosphere.. but no space

but the problem is... I DONT HAVE ANY MORE FLYING DREAMS =( saaadd...

Flying isn't hard at all for me. I just go up and about. Although I don't often fly in my dreams anymore because I'm bored of it.
