Description
A follow-up to Dashie's First Flight .I don't remember the first time I tried and failed at something, but I have been fortunate to have parents who supported me even when the best-case scenario didn't happen. I've been able to pick myself up and move forward thanks to their support. And on this upcoming Father's Day, this seems like a good way to celebrate supportive parents.
Special thanks for the following resources:
Spitfire's Cutie Mark courtesy of
Wonderbolt Logo courtesy of
The night sky was taken from 's fantastic Canterlot at Night background.

Clouds vectors are courtesy of
The final comic in this mini-series is Dashie's Gift .
Thanks for reading!

When I first saw this somewhere else before, I dawwwed. Now ,seeing it again as a Lightning Dust fan, I focused on that Dusty on the first panel

Beautifully done. Makes you think and want to help someone. I hope that if I have my own child/children, I can be a good role model for them.Β

How could Lightning Dust POSSIBLY be better than Rainbow?
I don't know about you guys, but I mostly think that Lightning Dust deserved to be kicked from the academy.

I'm guessing when a PegasusΒ flaps his/her wings really fast it's like when a puppy wags it's tailΒ

I wish we could meet RD's dad in the show, he's awesome!

He Is....In Season 3 Epsiode .....i forgot buts games pony play think

I know, but I mean I want to have him appear with a speaking voice like we have with Pinkie Pie and Rarity's parents. If for nothing else than to learn his name!

I do not know why but tell me if this would work RD's Dad: Bruce Willis.
π: 0 β©: 1
Doesn't work for me. How about Tom Cruise since he was in "Top Gun" and all.
π: 0 β©: 1
Maybe, I can kinduv see that because of that BUT, I KNOW WHY you chose T. Cruise, I just kinduv like Bruce because HE, just seems to be one who is KNOWN to take NO B.S. from people and has MORE that RD arrogance than Tom, I mean if you saw the Die Hard Series, you SEE...RD.

Well, I've never seen any Bruce Willis or Tom Cruise films, but I get what you're saying. Rainbow Dash's dad should be a guy who wouldn't take B.S. from anything.
Now, I'm thinking Kevin Conroy. He rules!

Voice of Animated Batman? hmmmm......THAT WORKS!!! UNLESS A: He is retired, B: Hasbro pulls some SERIOUS cash and DOES get B.W. XD

I understand

Shouldn't Spitfire and Soarin be older than Lightning Dust and Rainbow Dash?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, though we don't know how old. Since there are four body types used to depict age, it's hard to guess at the age difference between characters.
For the sake of this comic, Spitfire and Soarin are a year or two older, which gave them the edge while still being able to compete against Rainbow Dash and Lightning Dust.

Those first and second placers look strangely familiar... like they were celebrities in later life or something... not sure... are they meant to be ponies from the show, or did you just come up with a couple of random ones?
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh, they're random. Yet I envision a future in which they do grow up to be celebrities...
Who get knocked out by a flailing fashionista.
Then imprisoned by a dragon.
Then this one mare just watches while other ponies create a water tornado and goes on to be an ineffectual drill instructor.
I have a lousy imagination.

Yeah, that sounds pretty crazy!

I believe that Rainbow Dash's parents are divorced or, at least separated, and she lives with her dad.Β
