I'm looking at power in the flight section, only see air superiority on

Can tell us what level your character is, and possibly post a screenshot of your powers window?  I suspect, as @lyra intimated, that you may have been using the free jetpack you get at like level 2 or so...

I'm level 10

OK, so from that screenshot, you'll notice that fly is dimmed, meaning that you haven't taken it yet.  If you like, please post the rest of the powers in your window so we can tell for sure, but I suspect my first conclusion is correct...

Yeah, so that tracks w/ my initial assessment.  To break it down further:

 

Level 1: resist physical damage & defensive sweep or crushing blow (2 powers)

Level 2: defensive sweep or crushing blow (1 power)

Level 3: 2 enh slots

Level 4: titan sweep or air superiority (1 power)

Level 5: 2 enh slots

Level 6: resist elements(1 power)

Level 8: whichever of titan sweep or air superiority that you didn't take before (1 power)

Level 9: 2 enh slots

Level 10: unyielding (1 power)

Yep, it's a bit tricky when you pick powers from another pool, it's a second click after you picked it. Fly is available at level 4, and any time after that when there is a power pick. The free fly does vanish after you've used it for a certain amount of time. 

 

If you are level 10 you have a free respec so you can redo your power picks. Just type /respec and make sure you pick fly at level 4. Air superiority is a bit of a niche pick and it's very rarely chosen unless someone desperately wants group fly and doesn't want to take hover, a far more useful power in my opinion.

 

I now await all the people jumping on me to tell me Air superiority is fantastic and they consider it a must pick they can't live without 😛

Offering some unsolicited advice: Temp Invulnerability gives you much more protection than Resist Physical Damage, and Dull Pain will save your hide a lot more than Resist Elements. The Resist powers are always on and cost-free, but the actual benefits are very low. Something I wish I'd known when I rolled my first Inv Tanker.

 

Hope you're having a good time.

I've resorted to this a few times;  You take a power just to try it out, (or as the result of a mis-click), then slog through things for a little bit before deciding that pick wasn't such a good choice...

True, but it's also a delicate endurance-balancing act, especially with an end-heavy set like Titan Weapons.

I still mess this up during respecs...

I don't pick air super because it is a must pick but because i LOVE the animation.  It is fantastic and I waste a lot of hits on enemies just to watch them flop head over heels

I mean I took it on a SS Brute back in the day on Live and it was a pretty decent addition to the attack chain. It's been a while since I played the set and some adjustments ago, but back then it had better DPA than say, Jab. 😛
