If we had dragons, they would have to fly only a few feet from the ground, or be wingless:

We shouldn't talk about the what the game engine can or cannot do since none of us really know the specs, what it is capable of and how it works.

If the current areas do not support or are not designed/optimized for flying mounts, then SE can added flying mounts along with new areas which would be designed from scratch to support flight. Just like WOW did with the Outlands and their first flying mounts.

Down the road, when SE finally starts redesigning the maps like they said they would, then at that point they can also tweak the current maps to support flying mounts.

It's probably not an easy task but how cool would it be to ride a small Bahamut?
