Growing up we are all subjected to images of people and characters flying. I was no exception to this and have often dreamed of flying with no apparatus or machine to guide me. There is no way I could logically make a human fly like superman, or for that matter an angel. We are skinned animals and would be hard pressed to integrate a gene of a species that is not a mammal. So I researched into flying mammals and found bats the most genetically compatible for splicing, but the wing span of a bat would mean the average wing span for a human to fly would have to be about 8 ft. I thought having our wings attached to our arms and torso would be really hard for us to go about daily life in a regular way, is I thought if we had bat style wings attached to a separate shoulder joint on the back we could fly more comfortably similar to a dragons back or an angel and looks cool too. In the end you would need to genetically make the wings and change a couple things to the body such as extra shoulder joints and similarly the muscles to make them function. Side effects would be new wardrobe and fashion industry. End of public transportation, lower pollution, increase in metabolic rates and lower the level of obese humans.
