Kind of. The Flight skill takes the place of the Running and Hiking skills - you roll against it to avoid FP loss when running and to increase travel distance (see B354 - that is, Basic Set page 354 (Basic Set being Characters+Campaigns - in this case, Campaigns)). Aerial acrobatics actually uses the Aerobatics skill.
