 The Flying Nun   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
To me, a real shark jump is when the show really changes and loses a lot of what the original appeal was.
On the subject of her flying: Okay, it's explained that the shape of her headgear (probably designed by Lockheed Martin or Boeing), combined with her weight, the winds, and a few other factors combine to allow her to take flight when the wind is just right.
I don't think it really jumped the shark, so much as started out with an offbeat premise that attracted a few viewers initially, but became boring after the novelty wore off and just gradually faded away as the viewers abandoned it.

It was known as a safe and secure aircraft being able to fly pilots back home after being shot up in action.
The shark teeth graphics are the big feature on this plane and, with just a bit of care, it makes up into a great model.

While the red-finned cigar shark and bala shark are both members of the cyprinid family, I actually find the bala shark the more attractive fish between the two.
Another similarity between the bala shark and the red-finned cigar shark is their timid and jumpy behavior.
The bala shark is more or less a mid level feeder, although it is not unusual to catch the bala shark feeding from the water's surface or patrolling the aquarium bed.

 Flying Shark Vs. Flying Crocodile [Archive] - Advanced Media Network ::: AMN Forums
I chose the Dragonfly as the flight aspect of the creature since it was the most powerful of all the other flying animals available.
anyways, the shark would emerge from the water, and fly at the croc with the speed and precision of a fighter jet, and try as hard as it could to keep the reptile on the ropes.
It would only take one hit, ONE, from the sharks flesh ripping jaws of crocodile death to maim the croc, and with that one hit, the match would be over, as the shark could then take its time eviscerating (sp?) the croc.

 SHMUPS!
Whereas Flying Shark was much more leisurely and pedestrian, Fire Shark positively encourages whizzing about the screen at silly speeds.
So, Fire Shark is almost as unlike a sequel to Flying Shark as can be, in gameplay terms.
The beauty of Fire Shark is now evident, by this period the screen is getting extremely busy, with enemies literally throwing themselves at you, stuff coming from all angles, and you will have a super speedy ship and HOPEFULLY, a weapon to go with it.

 JoseQ's Emu Views
Hmmmm,I always thought that sharks were beasts of the swimming kind :) but I may be mistaken...So,what we have here is a Flying Shark.
Flying Shark dates back to 1987,but holds its own quite well even today.Graphics are very neat and clear.I particularly love the way the enemy planes crash once you've shot them.Very juicy indeed...Down to the ground,you little creeps,DOWN!...erm,just got a bit carried away I think.
To nag a little (don't we all have to,from time to time?),the graphics are a little repetitive and when you lose a life the game throws you somewhat back AND removes all extra firepower,thus punishing severely any slight misjudgements.Due to the game's speed,this will happen more often than never...

 Photographing Africa's "Flying Sharks"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
When seals cross deep water to approach or leave their island sanctuary, the waiting sharks, swimming at depth, hurtle themselves with great strength toward the animals at the surface.
Each interaction between shark and seal is viewed from a respectable distance with the dual objective of trying to get the best data and images from each encounter.

A flying shark monkey would not be possible, unless a winged shark, or a winged monkey was added into the game.
No one is doubting that you cannot combine a monkey (gorrila or baboon) with a flying unit, or a shark with a monkey (gorrila or baboon).
You just cannot have all three together unless a flying monkey was added as a single creature in some mod or expansion pack.

 Review Of Flying Shark
However an all too common ailment of the breed is the assumption that higher difficulty relates directly to filling the entire screen with bullets and insisting that even the tiniest of enemies require several shots before they ascend to the 16K RAMPAK in the sky.
Fortunatley, Flying Shark belongs to the former category with well thought out enemy attacks and a strictly fair sense of gaming ethics.
But when you're dealing with a game set in a specific period, you can easily ruin what atmosphere there is by insisting that the Japanese did indeed employ the usage of alien flying saucer death rays in their war efforts.
