A Flying Slig is a Slig that can fly. Instead of legs, this Slig is given an engine not unlike that of a helicopter rotor. They also receive different weapons than those of their ground-based brothers; they are equipped with grenade launchers. Less accurate than the machine guns but pack more punch. Due to the sub-standard intelligence of the Slig species they quite frequently blow themselves up with these said grenades. Abe used these floating monsters by possessing them and turning the grenades against other Sligs.
