So the real question is whether or not the Dragon's ability to fly overrides it's extremely weak tummy.

Nice thought,
Gurthang.
Flying is definitely a nice perk when engaging enemies, but if the battle was dragon versus balrog, flying wouldn't be very beneficial.
You see, flying is nice because it allows the dragon to blast its opponent with fire while staying out of range and thus not allowing its opponent to land a blow. The dragon's fiery breath is its main weapon while airborne.
Now, a balrog is a spirit of fire. Isn't it likely that a dragon's breath would be useless against a balrog?
If so, then flying would not be of much use.
