Ant kings and queens 
Horrible when they get in your hair or down your top.
Useful in their way, though.

They would probably be like crane flies but with more direction.

My son has been asking me every day, for the last week or so, when flying ant day is.
We are very excited.

We always look forward to Flying Ant Day. I remember it went down a storm when it coincided with the MiL's 60th birthday
On holiday in Cornwall I was having a pot of tea outside a cafe. I saw the unmistakable beginings of activity and called my son and his best friend across to observe a parade of flying ants and the ceremony of their attendants. At that, the proprietor rushed out with a kettle of boiling water and poured it all over them.
EEE! I was cross.
EEE! I was cross.
mowed the lawn this afternoon, swept a pile of dirt of the garden path and disturbed a huge nest of the buggers.
