So, I guess the New Micro Machines Star Wars sets no longer come with flight stands? I picked of a few Star Wars Rogue One and Rebels sets and was wondering why there were not any flight stands inside when I opened the packs up. Is this some thing new?

You have to use the force if you want them to hover above the table. Sorry, I mean that I don't know.

Apparently so.

Though oddly, based on my son's blind bag one's, they still have a hole in the appropriate place for a flight stand…

I found the old MicroMachines bases difficult to use for gaming because the models were balanced over the front edge of the base. I have sometimes reused these bases by gluing a brass rod into them.

Would they fit on the Silent Death type flight stands that EM4 sells?

I like the home made versions shown above.

I agree, I never liked the original M M stands, the ships seemed off balance as if 'leaning' too far forward.

NCC,
Love your Klingon ships, they look w/in scale and 'too clean', (no warping) to be M M's. IIRC the "D 10?" (bottom image) is an old FASA model (may still have around somewhere) is it?
The rest appear to be ADB.
