Firebenders flying

Could firebenders always fly or was it just during the comet?

    No I think it was so that they would have the pure power to just blast them all before they could scater to the winds. Remember they all had air bisons and gliders so the attack had to be sudden and hard so they couldn't escape which they didn't.

    But like I said normaly flying is a hard thing to do for normal benders so the comet would help them yes but it was far more of an issue to kill them quickly rather than just reach them.

    gyatso killed a few benders before he went down tho... I wonder how he did it because it doesn't seem to me airbenders have a way to kill... unless of course he suffocated them

    he probably did it out of self defense, also you could blow them off the cliff or smack them hard against something

    blowing them off the cliff would make sense, but there were dead firebenders around his corpse

    thats why the second option would to be to propel something hard at them or to hit them hard against something.
