A quick count up shows it's about equal to an Aasimar Race Point wise (more if you add gliding wings - see below). It looks on the whole not to bad. 2 things though.
Butterfly wings seems to imply it can slowing a fall but includes no rules for doing so. It's likely that is just fluff as +2 to fly isn't going to stop you falling. I would clarify this with your GM.
I would be looking very carefully at what character class a player wanting this race would choose. That stat array concerns me. Not so much that I would stop someone playing it, and not so much as a +4 to an ability score concerns me, but I would definitely be paying more attention.

I have the book. Nothing bad so far but I've seen it exactly one outside playtest/theorycraft. I will say to make sure winged races mechanically can fly before players try. I once had a player that hjust assumed Tengu fly naturally.

Yeah, there are feats needed before the faerie dragons can fly
Which is why your particular dragon started adventuring. All of the other dragons laughed and called him names. (They could fly from birth without a feat)

I think it's balanced. Of course, I wrote the sourcebook in question. :)
And yeah, there are some racial feats required before you can fully fly.

What is the pairing

That said, Dale McCoy is a pretty nice guy in person.
Thank you.

All the races of the Book of Heroic Races Compendium were built to be balanced with the core book races. I believe that the half-faerie dragons are the most powerful of the bunch. Reapers, seedings and umbral kobolds are more in the 9-10 RP range.
And thank you for taking an interest. I hope you enjoy it.
It's likely that is just fluff as +2 to fly isn't going to stop you falling.
It gives you a +2 to Acrobatics as well as Fly. Acrobatics is more the relevant skill here. A successful roll in certain situations allows someone to ignore some falling damage (the first 10 feet of a fall, IIRC). That +2 bonus helps with that.
What is the pairing
Me and Todd Stewart, I think.
Lol
Where did you get the name Jon Brazer from anyways?
Jon Brazer was a character of mine. I played D&D, Robotech, Star Wars, and Toon as a middle schooler, but I didn't really get into role playing in a serious way until almost the end of my college career with a V:tM character named Jon Brazer. He was a gangrel ghoul that hunted down Sabbat and made them pay for his lost love. There are few other characters I loved playing as much as that one.
In retrospect, I should have named the company Dale McCoy Games (or DMG) and I probably will change it to that someday, but I like JBE.

That too is one of the reasons why I haven't done it yet and don't expect to do it in the near future.
