Last chapter of Minuette (published on 31st March):
“Not really, since the air from your wings still pushes against the floor,” I reply. “Also, flying in a non-inertial reference frame–”
“Stop talking physics to me,” Daring Do mutters. “I’m a writer.”
Fun fact: while pre-reading, we had quite a long discussion about pegasi trying to hover on a flying plane. If we're not mistaken, the weight of the plane doesn't change, no matter if a pegasus stands or hovers (it's actually explained in-story). Also, unless the plane turns sharply or changes speed, the pegasus can hover safely, without getting smeared on the back wall.
Yep, and the only way a duck could fly faster than a plane would be by flying in it from tail to nose.

Yeah, for the observer on the ground.
