It's well established in Kid Icarus that Pit is flightless. A precise explanation is never given, just some vague statements tossed around without any real evidence to support or deny them. A personal headcanon of mine was that he never learned to fly, and over time has become convinced that can't. This leads to an interesting question; all in-universe claims aside, what does science have to say? Is Pit capable of flying or not, according to aerodynamics? I will specifically be focusing on two things in this analysis; aspect ratio and wing loading. I would delve into other aspects of flight, such as lift coefficient and Strouhal number, but the equations for these require certain variables that are difficult or impossible to obtain from the canon material without some external factor skewing the results. Aspect Ratio The aspect ratio of wings is defined as the square of the wingspan divided by wing area, with the wing area being the product of the wingspan multiplied by the chord,
