Hey Kelly,
Nice topic for a new discussion. You're absolutely right before the
age of 11 Harry may have apparated to the top of a building. The
canon is not 100% supportive though;
"But all he tried to do <snip shouting at..> was jump behind the big
bins outside the kitchen doors. Harry supposed that the wind must
have caught him in mid-jump."
As you can see there is reference to jumping which indicates a
possibility of flight, however the preceding passage contains;
"...<snip Dudleys gang> when, as much to Harry's surprise as anyone
else's, there he was sitting on the chimney."
Which supports a theory that he did not recall an actual experience
of getting from "mid-flight" from his jump to the top of the
chimney.
So, I put it to all. Which magic do you suppose he performed with
such relative ease? Unassisted Flight or Apparating?
