The Flight Air... ahh, where flights are held. There are a few rules to follow, so please read carefully.

Golds may only be flown by bronzes.
Greens may be flown by any male dragon, but please limit your bronze from flying all green flights. Give browns and blues a chance!
When a male greenrider flies, I don't want to see any harassment. Male-male pairings are an established part of Pern and have been for ages. If you don't like it, then don't read the thread(s).
Please keep each flight to as few threads as possible, and reply to the original message once in a while to prevent the board from becoming a mile wide.

Flight, be it gold or green, will proceed as follows:
Female will drop her rider off and blood a few kills. Male dragons will gather on the ground, their riders dismounted. The female will take off, usually with a cry of challenge. For green flights, males may proceed to chase immediately at this point. In the case of golds, W'ren with brown Datoth (ICly appointed to the position by T'bel) will signal when the bronzes may give chase. Once the chase begins, Males will try various tactics to catch the taunting female, who usually avoids them with ease for the first few moves. The female will, when she sees fit, choose the male that impresses her the most (through writing skills and tactics) and let him catch her. Please remember, nothing past kissing and hugging. Riders may choose to become weyrmates (aka, staying as a couple after the flight has ended) or simply acknowledging the flight until their dragons' infatuation with each other wears off, which usually doesn't take too long. Attachments aren't often kept, but it's up to the riders.

Good luck! The dragon soon to rise will also be announced on this board, so please keep an eye out! We'll try to keep the flights in progress as much as possible.
