Funny how that topic is intriguing us... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Well, what is described like a wing, couldn't it be something else wing-like such as his dark power aura, a shadow wrapping his shape etc...?
I don't think a Balrog could fly otherwise he wouldn't have walked during his battle against gandalf.
I even tend to consider "the decoration thing ", great ward told us, very plausible;
as if these peculiar wings were not made to fly but for intimidation look!

Maybe they have some mysterious other functions (defensive?, attack?, we are not aware of...? [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]
