I’ve heard of people dreaming about flying and it being a common dream. I’ve never had one though. The closest thing I can link to flying with is when I’m in a dream and I want to get somewhere. I run real fast, but infact it feels extremely slow. While I’m running I pull the Earth under me instead of actually running extremely fast (only way I can really describe it.) I also float up pretty high while doing this.
Have any of you had experiences like this that could relate to flying?
Actually, I never dream about flying. From memory I don’t think I’ve ever had a normal dream in which I was flying or even floating. I’ve had plenty where I cant walk properly for some reason, as if I was paralized standing up - but never flying.
I wondered for a while if this might limit my chances of having a LD, as my dreams were all very standard and usually didn’t contain anything that may strike me as being odd. Those fears have since been put to rest. 
I fly often and its really wonderful. Its more often in lucid dreams. I don’T know any techniques or practices to have a flying dream. It just happens in my dreams by only thinking to fly. I direct and control it by my mind. 
i often found myself flying or trying to fly in a dream. sometimes just flying all on my own, but sometimes i have a helicopter or some other machine i fly with. i love it. i can really feel the wind in my face and the nice feeling in my stomach of being so high above everything. it’s really nice. 
too bad, that these dreams weren’t lds 
. in my one and only ld i tried to fly, but i didn’t manage to do it. i was only falling wery slowly and gently to the ground.
I have had many flying dreams when lucid, but not so many non-lucid ones, because that usually makes me realize i’m dreaming. I once had a dream where i was jumping very high from treetop to treetop and off of houses and stuff, like crouching tiger hidden dragon, i realized it was a dream. it took my a while to be able to fly, i imagined rockets blasting under my shoes, and sure enough i began to levitate, it took some practice before i could fly well, but now when i have a lucid dream, i almost always fly, to get from place to place or what not. its tonsa fun.
the last flying dream i had was semi lucid i had this thing in my hand while i was flying (didn’t get a good look at it but it was a 3rd person dream with view from behind and the object was round) and i found out if i moved it up i went down and vise-versa(sorta like a plane) it fun but i couldn’t get full lucidity though but it was the closest i have had to ld in a flying dream
