To determine the number of students in the survey who chose flying as their superpower, let's first look at the data provided:

\begin{tabular}{lcc}
Superpower & Male & Female \\
\hline
Flying & 26 & 12 \\
Invisibility & 14 & 32 \\
Other & 10 & 8 \\
\end{tabular}

We need to find the total number of students who chose flying, which means we have to sum up the male and female students who selected flying.

- The number of male students who chose flying is 26.
- The number of female students who chose flying is 12.

Now, let's add these numbers together:

[tex]\[ 26 \text{ (males)} + 12 \text{ (females)} = 38 \text{ (students)} \][/tex]

Therefore, the total number of students who chose flying as their superpower is:

[tex]\[ \boxed{38} \text{ students} \][/tex]
