I'm not sure about always, but Diana's been able to fly at least since the George Perez post-Crisis reboot in the mid 80s. And John Byrne didn't take that ability away despite giving her a new version of the Invisible Jet, so I assume personal flight dates back at least to his comic fan days.
They're doing it backwards; walking up the down slide.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
She had super-jumpy powers at her very start, and has been flying since 1966. So, since most of us were consuming her.

Leaked audition tape. I don't get how some stuff isn't immediately embarrassing. Or was there worse shit in the script that David took out thinking "no, this makes a strong character look inane."?

That scene was the aforementioned page 34.

God, I can't follow that link. Just mousing over it was awful enough.
I really like Adrianne Palicki, but I suspect I won't be able to watch this thing.

Diana is going to hallucinate Dr. Psycho dancing to "Hooked on a Feeling" at some point, isn't she?

Etta was fine for me in the Perez run. I have nothing against the character. I just think Diana is going to suck.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Wonder Woman's flight powers were pretty limited but grew in the 60's. It did take post-crisis to become part of canon. The plane she's had since the get-go, as she needed other ways to travel, and other places, and it's a lot easier to carry stuff and passengers.
Signed, used to have a lot of comic books of all flavors and read a wide variety of them, but really hasn't gone back and examined his memories.
I really seem to remember the comic book WW getting more into flight after the Lynda Carter TV version went off the air.
Probably time to hit the wikis.
