Synopsis:
At a meeting of the Super-Flyers Club, members detail their experiences of flying with the Boy of Steel. Superboy arrives at the meeting as a guest and begins repeating the famous flights. Superboy doesn't explain his reasons for duplicating the rides. Lana Lang uses the opportunity to try and prove that Clark Kent is Superboy, when she recalls that Superboy once gave Clark a ride. Superboy constructs a robot to fool Lana and is able to duplicate the ride.

At the end of the day Superboy explains that a side-effect from a meteor caused explosions whenever he touched the ground. He duplicated the rides, so that he didn't have to touch the ground. He kept it secret to thwart would-be criminals. Once the effect wears off, Superboy is able to safely touch the ground again.
