Just btw, the flier has the ability to increase his ST at will, at the expense of his flight speed.

Just to make sure my math is correct:

Presuming weight of (say) 2200 lbs for the grappler. That requires ST of 75 to lift in Light encumbrance mode, which the flier can easily manage. He could even manage the 104 ST to make him No encumbrance, if that would make it easier.

So, with all that ... despite the fact that he can easily lift the mass of the grappler off the ground ... he can't? Because a non-flying grappler has hold of him?

Please tell me how this makes any kind of sense.
