The Falcon
Falcon, Sam Wilson, was introduced into comics back in 1969 and became Captain America's partner. He wasn't flying then yet but later came across some wings. They were always made by other people as Sam did not have the ability to create such things. He also was later given the power to communicate with birds. Initially this was specifically with his pet falcon Redwing and was stong enough to for him to be able to see through the bird's eye. Later he became able to control all kinds of birds. There is also a version of Sam Wilson that is an excellent inventor. That version, while not represented in animation, did indeed create his own wings.
