Etymology
Flyer for a small paper comes from fly ('to move quickly') plus -er ('thing that'), because these papers used to 'fly' through the streets and people's hands. A helpful image is a sheet of paper 'flying' into someone's hand to give news or an ad, which is why a flyer is a small printed sheet for information or advertising.
