Re: four winged Archaeopteryx



Note that I have no objection to mobile aerodynamic feathers and realize that 
many
are, but by analogy, does the statement below mean that proposing immobile 
fixed wings
for aircraft would be a very strong claim?  I note in passing, that immobile 
fixed
wings are not unusual in aircraft, and that they are expected to work for 
flight.
