Played a game recently and my opponent said that if there were and enemy within 1" of my flyer and thous no room to pivot then I could not pivot my flyer.

I think this is wrong since pivot is part of the movementphase and since the Flyer has "Fly" keyword it can then move (pivot) over enemy/friendly modells. Thous you can never stop a Flyer from pivoting.

Am I thinking this right?

You are right.

You are correct, your opponent was wrong. As you said, the pivot is in the Movement Phase and thus benefits from the FLY keyword rule.

Thanks for the help clearing things up.
