    These could be enchantments. Elytra have never had unique enchantments and this would be the perfect place to implement them.

    When I finally found the elytra, I thought I would see the world like a falcon, but instead, I felt like I was operating a motor aircraft. The reasons:

    –Perspective is locked in the direction to which one is flying to. Birds can look down. Imagine looking down and seeing the dizzying height... without nose diving towards the ground and losing elevation. This would bring so much more depth to flight by elytra.

    –Computer is slow and chunks don't load quick enough. A solution would be to have an enchantment that decreases velocity and perhaps increases glide ratio, similar to how slow falling does.

    I am operating a propelled aircraft! Make flying more strategic by adding thermals and wind, perhaps in a weather update. Another benefit from this is the fact that airspeed and windspeed are two different values, i.e. a landing station is up ahead, and enough wind is blowing to make a slow and steady (very easy) approach onto the station.
