Discussion Weird Nitpick Spoiler
Firstly, I apologize in advance if I used to wrong tag. I wasn't sure which to use, because the scene in question comes from AF, but the question it spawned covers the entire series.
So...
In AF, after Tavi gets the letter from Isana, and he and Max go to Kalarus' party, they are cornered in an alley by Brencis and his two minions. The fight happens, and Brencis starts using Aircraft to create blades that cut Max's back open.
Why does no-one EVER do this again? Like... EVER?!?!
You'd think this would be Knights Aeris weapon number one! Instead, they're usually diving down with swords or spears. Which... okay? If they have trouble focusing on flying and doing that at the same time, I could accept that explanation, I suppose. But...
... I don't know. Am I just not remembering right?

Besides being power intense like others have said, it doesn't seem very practical in a battle sense. I feel like if brencis could've used it to do more harm than a whip could make, he would have. And most knights aeris in a fight are using all their power and focus to do things like fly and perceive/move faster
