Weapon and Armor Proficiency: An airborne ambusher is not proficient with heavy armor or tower shields.
Class Skills: An airborne ambusher adds Fly to his list of class skills and removes Climb from his list of class skills.
Combat Flyer (Ex): At 2nd level, an airborne ambusher may use his fighter bonus feats to select Flyby Attack and Hover. This replaces bravery.
Aerobatics (Ex): At 5th level, an airborne ambusher may make a Fly check instead of an Acrobatics check to move through a threatened area or an enemy’s space. This replaces weapon training 1.
Flying Dodger (Ex): At 9th level, when an airborne ambusher flies at least half its fly speed on its turn, it gains a +1 dodge bonus to AC for 1 round. This bonus increases to +2 at 11th level and +4 at 17th level. This ability replaces weapon training 2.
Plummeting Charge (Ex): At 13th level, if an airborne ambusher flies at least half its fly speed as part of a charge, it gains a +2 racial bonus on the attack roll (in addition to the normal charge bonus) and a +4 bonus on its critical confirmation roll. These bonuses improve to +4 and +6 at 17th level. This replaces weapon training 3 and 4.
