How would you build flight that works underwater?

[Pizza Man]

I'm putting together a guy who can generate air and harden it into a force shield.

Its good enough to justify life support in a number of environments, and I want him to fly as well in air or underwater. I have no idea where to start.

There's an Advantage on movement powers that alows it to act as a second type of movement.

As Escafarc said,

 

Flight with the advantage +1/4 works as swimming.

 

Bam, done You'll love the full book... so many more options

Or modified Tunneling. The PD it goes through is related to the density of the water at various depths.

Multipower with Swimming. Define the special effect of your Swimming as "flying through water".

My house rule is that Flight automatically works underwater unless there's some good reason why it wouldn't, in which case, you buy that as a power limitation. If you fly like a bird with wings, then you probably can't fly underwater. If you fly like Superman (or Wonder Woman or Green Lantern or Invincible or Omi-Man or...) there's absolutely no reason why you couldn't. Charging extra for that ability cheeses me off, so I changed the rules for my game.
