So the bicep and tricep of birds, let’s just use chickens since most people will be familiar with them, are mostly responsible for in flight control.
That’s the drumette. The flat, the one with two bones, are for controlling the very tip of the wing, for maneuvering. Notably these muscles are kinda big compared to the body size of the bird. About 6 inches around. If a human were the size of a chicken our biceps would be something like an inch around in comparison.
For liftoff, and staying aloft, birds have slightly different muscle groups. This is the breast meat. Bird chest muscles are ridiculously huge compared to their bodies. They don’t really have abs, the have chest muscles down their entire torso. Chickens are kind of mutants and aren’t really good examples anymore but birds universally have absolutely BADONKERS chests.
Basically what I’m saying is: If Pit were drawn by Rob Liefeld, he’d be closer to obtaining flight.
