Hola Adrito,
Si bien mi granny irlandesa preferiria a los fairies y elves, leperchauns,fays, pixies, pucks, dwarfs,gnomes and goblins proper...
... aquí -en tu contexto de la fuerza aerea- se trata de flashes o destellos eletricos rojos: los esquivos duendes y elfos que danzan en las nubes de tormenta en la mesofera, tambien sobre las nubes de tormenta.
En la siguiente webpage te ilustran sobre duendes: flashes electricos rojos (elves: electric red flashes) avistados desde el Columbia.
Mucha Suerte en tu tradu...y por si acaso...dejale alguna miguita de pan cerca de tus tesauros y diccionarios a los fairies...just in case!
Failte
(Salud en Gaelico Irlandes)
Patricia.

Unless this is some very special slang:
"Duende" is variously translated in English, and can also be "elf" or "dwarf", however, the only such beings considered capable of flight are "fairies".
