   Flying dreams are non-lucid OOBEs / Astral projections:   
      
   The waking mind is typically trapped within the POV / point of view /   
   perspective of the brain, within the body it occupies.  Why?  because the body   
   needs so much attention, usually.  But when the body is asleep and no longer   
   in high demand of the mind,    
   we perceive dreams which are the view-screen of the mind.   
      
   As the mind is infinite, so too are the opportunities for fun, adventure, and   
   learning, so the mind goes out to have fun, adventure, and learn things in the   
   form of dreams, thus putting our sleep time to more efficient use.   
      
   When the mind dreams it is flying, that is the equivalent to a non-lucid form   
   of an astral body projection, aka Out of Body Experience (OOBE) which   
   basically means the mind is at play beyond the confines of the physical form.
