Sugar gliders cannot fly at all. Apart from bats, no mammal is capable of free flight.

Gliders are marsupials which can glide between treetops. As they launch, their forelimbs and hind limbs splay out, exposing gliding membranes which extend from the equivalent of their wrists to the knees, and allow them to glide between treetops and poles. Most types of gliders, or gliding possums, can glide up to 90 metres, but they cannot fly.
