The dative singular neuter form occurs with flying beings in all three verses: in Revelation 14:6 the APB renders an angel “flying in midair,” in Revelation 19:17 it renders birds “flying in midair,” and in Revelation 8:13 it renders an eagle “flying in midair.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: Across all three occurrences, the APB presents the relevant flight setting with “flying in midair.” This shared wording confirms the verse-level setting rather than isolating a precise English equivalent.
