My first thought was "Is that Aven Mindcensor?"

Still waiting for Leap to be printed in the Core Set one day.
And i think it would have made a better job for new players.
(Yeah, Wizards kinda likes telling new players how blue is THE color for flyers, but that's not what i mean:)
Like with M12's reintroduced Bloodthirst ability that teaches them to cast some cards on the second main phase, this could teach them (aside from the ovious fact to cast this before blockers are declared) to use instants on your opponent's turn. (Although a blue mage should know about that if he wants to make use of his counter spells :P)
Maybe that was even the reason why they decided to exchange Jump in the Core Set for Flight in the first pace...but Jump sucks! And cantrips are no big deal for Core Sets, especially with generic names like Leap :D
On top of that, there's still the fact that new players might get fooled into thinking Auras like these are worth something in constructed although they'll just cause card disadvantage :o

I don't get what is so terrible about this card. Yeah, leap is better because of the card draw, but this is permanent so it is still useful. Also, giving a big creature evasion and the ability to block other flying creatures seems like it could be worth one mana.

Removal makes this a 2 for 1 target, but its a solid card for limited, and playable in casual. Just throw it on a Sacred Wolf

They could have added something else to make this kind of card useful, even if it had to cost more - card draw on damage to an opponent, mill cards on damage to an opponent, or shroud for enchanted creature. All blue abilities, and all more useful than Flying is alone.

"I believe I can fly...I believe I can touch the sky..." should be the flavor text
