I have always felt that John's passion for flying was related to the ATA gene. That it was about maneuvering an object through time and space. In my head canon, I see his mother as a sailor extraordinaire--her ATA gene manifesting itself in Atlantis' affinity for water. For John that affinity manifests itself in Atlantis' ability to fly. I see both of them as children of Atlantis.
For John, I also see that flying in the one place where he is one with machine. Where there is nothing between him and himself in a way. It's freedom, but it's also peace.
