as the title states, the Flameward Hippogryph that is rewarded from doing the Molten Front Offensive achievement, does not flap its wings while flying even though it uses the same model and animations as the Argent Hippogryph and Cenarion War Hippogryph. instead it just sorta bobs up and down while floating through the air.

I grinded this thing for weeks only for it to not work properly, the heck. Also the headless horsemans mount swims?? through the air instead of running? looks so stupid. Please fix these mounts…
I just got mine today and can confirm. Mine is behaving in the same way. Hope they fix it. Was hyped when I got it but was a bit bummed to see it bugging out.
Wish I could believe it will be fixed but assuming it never will. Headless Horseman mount has been doing it since prepatch.
Every faction the player starts out neutral with is still hostile to players for a moment after loading in. My 82 hunter got one-shot by an Elite elemental guard after porting to Silver Tide Hollow just the other day. I hear the Hyjal guards rushing and see then resetting after I port there to do dailies every morning, sometimes I even get hit. Was doing new old quest achievements last night, at Light’s Hope. Did an RDF and when I left the instance had all those guards attacking me for 3 seconds and I’ve been exalted with them since Classic Vanilla. My second lock got killed by the guards when porting into Moonglade on the starting Hyjal quest.
This has also been a problem since prepatch.
Yet Paladins discovered they could beacon someone then swap specs and beacon would still be active. That gets fixed immediately.
They don’t care about bugs that hinder characters or that are cosmetic issues. But find one that can be exploited for a benefit to the players and they’ll take care of it immediately.

If I jump from the ground it flaps its wings once and then goes to a different kind of aerodynamic. 
After all those dailies.
Can confirm same broken mount stuff going on for me too
