Flight is the ability to propel oneself through the air.
Characters
Nathan Petrelli is the only character known to have this ability.
Limits
The conditions under which Nathan's power of flight occurs is not well known. Although initially Nathan exhibited little control over his ability, he apparently quickly mastered it, as more recent examples show his able to take off swiftly and land with relative ease. Judging from the effects shown in Hiros, Nathan may be able to attain supersonic speeds. If this is true, a side-effect of his abilities must include some protection from temperature extremes (both hot and cold) and the ability to perceive his surroundings while flying at such speeds. In this example case, Nathan was able to take off, fly away swiftly, and land in a (reasonably) controlled manner.
Examples
- Nathan instinctively flies (for what seems to be the first time) when his car is run off the road by Linderman's men. On this occasion, he exhibits no control over his powers, and cannot descend one he has flown above the car.
- Seen in: Six Months Ago
- When Peter attempts to fly on his own, Nathan sees his fall and flies up to catch him. Still apparently a novice at the ability, he is unprepared for the extra weight and initially begins to fall out of control until Peter mimics his power and helps stabilize them.
- Seen in: Genesis, Don't Look Back (flashback)
- On the second occasion that Peter mimics the flight ability, he is seen to literally "walk on air", levitating at a constant height without effort (shown by the fact that he doesn't even realize he is doing it until Nathan points it out)
- Seen in: Don't Look Back
- When threatened by The Haitian and Mr. Bennet, Nathan shows the strongest example yet of flight -- as outlined above, this seems to show true supersonic flight
- Seen in: Hiros
