Default Shape Shifting vs. Flying

My roomates and I have been having this argument since we watched T2 yesterday. Would you rather have the ability to change your appearance ala the T1000 from Terminator 2/ Mystique from x-men or would you rather have the ability to fly? Let's assume that you don't get any of the powers that come with these ( knives/ability to reform from Terminator and super strength or anything else for flying). Im torn, but I choose shape shifting. God, reading this I sound like a nerd. Well, I was toasted and it seemed like a serious discussion at the time.


Edit: Flying at low speeds, around 15-20 mph max.

Chicks love pilots, so I'm going with flying. Also, the ability to fly to the nearest casino or fly home after a night of drunken partying sounds good.

This is true. But seeing as how I already fly to the point where I get tired of it, I voted for shape shifting.

That would make you a shape shifting flyer. I can't even fathom the number of women who would be throwing themselves at you nightly.

It would probably get quite crazy. If I ever find myself with shape shifting abilities, I'll post a trip report.

Chose shape-shifting, because it seems obvious I could shift into an eagle and fly. Tell me why I'm wrong?

Let's hope reading isn't one of those special powers.

I guess. I read that as you don't get automatic knife hands or regeneration ability like the T1000 had, and you don't get super strength just because you can fly like say Superman had.

I read a reply that shapeshifting somehow only involves turning into other humans. That is completely different, I had thought you could turn into wolves or eagles and stuff. Now I'd like to change my vote to flying.
