...And things seem to have worked out well for Dan, despite some seriously disturbing news.
Speaking of disturbing, I really hope that we might get back to the action at the Warp Aci meeting, but I get the feeling that more than a glimpse or two might be too much.
much to the chagrin of the fans hoping the kilt would catch on as regular attire
You can't forget the effects of hair gel/spray/cement to make sure your hair doesn't blow around all freaky like
This makes me wonder what a hummingbird the size of Didi would sound like...
A squadron of UH-1D helicopters?

I said it before,but I think she sounds like a large desk fan when her wings go full throttle like that. And that's just the headwings. All three sets is gonna be LOUD. Like,Daft Punk concert sort of loud. I wonder how many allies Dan has made today,though...
I kind of think she would sound like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AluijV5unBA)
Maybe even fly like that if she chose too fly. >:3
@joshofspam: What the? How in the holy hell is that pilot doing that?
If Dimanika was truly upset, surely she'd go for something more tender than the wings!
They have RC helicopter competitions where I live, where they take them through choreographed flying set to music. I have no idea how the pilots remember from second to second what their orientation is. I'm sure it takes tons of practice. It's scary to watch, and they do wreck occasionally. A guy was actually killed back in September in New York when one took part of his head off.
The really weird RC things are the ornithopters, which fly like birds: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn5pPy9BX3w (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn5pPy9BX3w)
And then there are the dragonfly versions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDuvBurbjVU (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDuvBurbjVU).
I've always assumed the Fae fly more like insects myself.
Maybe someone will develop a Fae version, especially with that Disney movie The Pirate Fairy coming out in April.
(Haven't seen any of those Tinker Bell movies myself.)

Flawless. She's gotta sound like that. And the video is impressive too, never seen an RC 'copter flip like that.
And I'm sure we'll see the kilt again... Amber doesn't want to drown in fan tears. :B

See a geeky explanation here (http://www.geek.com/geek-cetera/helicopter-physics-series-explains-how-to-flip-and-fly-inverted-1480295/)
Actually, I forgot that what I originally wanted to say was that the amount of air moved by the wings depends on their pitch and cross-section. If the wings are at neutral pitch, they wouldn't move any air.
