This event where the Balrogs "flew" might also have been at a time when the Balrogs could transform (like their non-evil counterparts, the Maiar*). Maybe they, like Sauron, lost the ability to change their form. So possibly all of the Balrogs look different, depending on what form they were stuck in. (Some with wings, some without, etc.)
