Quick Flying Notes
- To quote Teppy, "Think hot-air balloon, not helicopter." You move in the direction you're blown, but you can go to higher or lower altitudes, and the wind direction will be different at different altitudes. There is a wind map (for the current altitude) accessed from Self -> Navigation -> Show the Airstream.
- No fuel is required.
- The option to re-inflate is under Self -> Skills -> Assembly.
- They have a weight and bulk of 100 when packed.
- If you land on water, you get a pop-up saying "A gust of wind blows you back!" and you're returned to wherever you took off from.
- They don't respect the auto-public setting.
Ferries and Long-Range Ferries
Ferries and long-range ferries can also be constructed to aid Egyptian travel.
