We can see the above part of "飞" is like a bird head and the bottom part is the image of two wings in the small seal script (an ancient style of calligaraphy). Its original meaning was bird's flying. The present simplified Chinese character "飞" looks like a bird bearing the extended meaning of "fly". Just like people in other countries, ancient Chinese also dreamed of flying and thus had all those legends of gods and goddesses living in the sky or on the sea with the ability to fly. The propitious symbol "dragon" was also depicted with the ability of flying.
