Flying cavalry, as the name suggests, are units of cavalry mounted on flying steeds, like Bretonnian Pegasus Knights. They are treated as units of flyers, except that: they have a cavalry profile for use in combat, each model has a unit strength of 2 and the riders get a +1 armour save, as normal for cavalry. Also, if they decide to move on the ground using their Move value, they move as skirmishers, but they do not ignore difficult terrain penalties as the mounted warriors, are much less agile than a skirmisher on foot.
