Engineers could make some kind of aircraft other than a chopper.

Turbo-Charged Flying Machine

I think a couple of bird mounts would be fun- I was really disappointed that the Daily out in Storm Peaks, where you flew on a Giant Eagle, didn't lead to a mount at some point. Maybe in the same fashion as the Polar Bear.
Sporebats would also be nice. I know a couple of people have already said regular bats. A permanent version of the Halloween Broom (every other holiday mount is permanent- why take the broom away?).
And I'd love to see a few new land mounts too- Stags, Clefthoof...maybe a Moose, or something...

Or we could have a tail come out our arses and fly around with that :D

Though I want the hover discs from the EoE encounter as a new flying mount, it wouldn't be too hard since it's already modeled and everything.
Perhaps they could add it as the 'Chopper' equivalent for Scribes? I think it would be nice if each profession had its own mount, actually.
Engineers have the chopper and 'choppa' mounts
Tailors have their flying carpets
Enchanters could summon a cloud of enchantment they could ride on (no DB references, please :P)
Scribes could have the aforementioned flying disk (i.e., the mystical symbols around the edge are inscribed to give it flight)
Jewelcrafters could have a mount version of the crystalline spiders found in Deepholm
Leatherworkers would have, uh - okay, still working on this one. Perhaps a stag mount with prominent leather reins?
Blacksmiths are sort of in the same boat as LWs - still working on it. However, a steel stallion would be pretty cool.
I also think that it'd be cool to have mounts for each class as well. :P But c'est la vie.

Nether drakes are so cool. I really love the Violet and the Veridian but i don't like Wotlk drakes. They could have put smt new, fresh like a flying tiger ( :D jk ) or what if every class could have some kind of special mount ?

Heh, I thought this was going to be a thread about Drakes obscuring quest-givers, postboxes, etc..
I think I agree with you OP. It seems the more recent non-drake mounts have been ones you have to pay for.
A few ideas off the top of my head:
Pterodactyl mount.
Just a pair of wings that sprout out of your back (I guess Aion did this already)
Engineers could make some kind of aircraft other than a chopper.
Jetpack.
Winged Serpent
Uhm... Giant Moth?
Er.... This is harder than I thought....
Boingy spring shoes?
That's still a lot more than just... drake.
I do like the DK Bone Gryphon, and my priest's Flying Carpet.

... Oh the joys I, I think I just had a crisis.
Please tell me you are awesome enough to be referencing Top Gear.

I like the mount of the goblin of the repair shop inside Ulduar. It's an ogre :)

I have to agree here, less drakes. I too wanted an eagle from the storm peaks dailies, I stopped doing them since there was no eagle involved. I was happy to get the blue drake from a random Oculus to replace my bronze from CoS for my DK.
My Druid doesn't use a drake: I have for him the Cenarion War Gryphon otherwise flightform FTW.
