I don't think I've ever had lucid dreams, but I do fly in my dreams a lot, and the "skill" of flying specifically gets carried over kind of like continuation dreams, except the dreams themselves are different (e.g., sometimes the dream world has magic and sometimes not).
My dream flying is odd; my ability to control my altitude fluctuates depending on whether I'm "concentrating" too little or too much. I suspect I'm balancing some kind of "partial lucidity" where I know I'm dreaming/I can fly but I can't think too hard about it. Another analogy would be like thinking about the game, or thinking too hard about a skill that has already become second nature.
Dream mental states are intriguing because you can be "in between". I don't think I'm the only person who has had "in between" dream states when you're trying to sleep in a stressful/uncomfortable situation and you drift in and out of consciousness (or maybe I am?).
