@thedarklordpandamonium: Can you show me someone who just got the ring escaping the Earth's orbit? Can you also show me someone who just got any other ring in the emotional spectrum (which are also banned) escape Earth's gravity with ease? I'll wait.
I don't own Sinestro Corps War or Blackest Night, but if you do here are the bits where they happen...
In Blackest Night Green Lantern the collection, the Black Rings create Xanshi which has a lush atmosphere near Earth's according to John Stewart. A horde of Black Lantern Xanshi-ites rise from the woodworks and chase John through space.
In Rage of the Red Lanterns, after Laira is first initiated and has no training she flies away from Ysmault with the rest of the Red Lanterns.
In Sinestro Corps War the Romat-Ru the Yellow Lantern is chasing down a ton of rookies; the rings get on their fingers, they see Romat-Ru and Tri-Eye chasing them, and they escape from the planet.
Those are all the instances I can think of right now that show speed, though it's worth noting that the 2nd Wave of Lanterns in Blackest Night (Lex Luthor, Scarecrow, Flash, Atom, etc) had no training whatsoever but were still fighting on par with the rest of them (Hal Jordan, Atrocitus, Larlfleeze, Sinestro, etc).
