Just wanted to point out that CoolStuffInc's copies seem to have dried up, so that link doesn't go anywhere. Thanks for compiling the rest for people, though!

Stealth Flying
When counting spaces for a Banshees Banshee of Durgeth Swamp's movement, ignore elevations. A Banshee may fly over water without stopping, pass over figures without becoming engaged, and fly over obstacles such as ruins. If a Banshee is engaged when it starts to fly, it will not take any leaving engagement attacks.

The Banshees seem highly situational. They die fast and are pricey for what makes up for it. Can only see them being a nice help against hard to kill squad figures.
