The present work uses the forces of lift, drag and flight allometry for winged flying organism in conditions where atmospheric density and the acceleration of gravity are different from those on Earth. In the formulas this parameters are convert into variables. The effects of taking higher or lesser values of g and from those of Earth are analyzed. In this manner, the different combinations of flight capacity of possible flying organisms on exoplanets are noted.
