One pair, so two scaled wings.

Nope.  As the proportions of the hummingbird gets bigger their weight, which is proportional to volume, also gets bigger.  Strength on the other hand is known to be roughly proportional to the cross section of muscle for any particular limb.  The same calculations are used for weight lifting events, and tell us if a 200 lb athlete did a better lift than a 180 lber.  I\n\nIn addition to all that, the bones also do not increase in nearly as much volume proportionatly as the meat.  The hummingbird would snap its bones trying to flap them that fast, but it probably wouldn't even be able to fly at all.  Because of all these limits on our structures, any animal that big begins taking on the weightlifter build.  For birds, the limit is that of the condor and it glides everywhere it goes.  The albatross is so fat at 30 lbs it already has trouble taking off and landing, so much so that its nickname is the goony bird.  30 lbs :that's the upper limit for birds on Earth right now.   \n\nThe teratorn is the largest bird that's ever been found at 160 - 170 lbs with a 25 foot wingspan and 11 feet from beak to tail, and it's EXTINCT.  We've only found the bones of one located in Argentina.  It seems hard to believe that a bird of that size would even be able to get off the ground, but it all the bones for flight so it must have.  This teratorn was a gliding bird of prey that closely resembled the eagle.  Animals like this and the Ultrasaur show us how what we perceive to be gravity is capable of changing... but that's for another question.

The size of the fuselage would depend on the size of the engine (assuming that you are trying to keep the engine in the fuselage). The wing span would primarily depend on how heavy the engine (and plane itself) was, to determine how much lift you need to get out of the wings to get off the ground.\n\nRemote controlled planes with a weight of 10lbs can lift about an additional 40 lbs of payload, if designed well. The one I am familiar with had approximately a 10 foot wingspan (length of each wing was 5ft)

It is actually a large sea bird.  For more info, please go here: http://www.aolsvc.worldbook.aol.com/wb/Article?id=ar010920&sc=-1

RAVEN`S :Eggs Laid 4 - 6, Incubation 20 -21 days, Fledgling about 45 days, Maximum Lifespan 16 years, Length 64cm, Wingspan 120 - 150cm, weight 800 - 1500g, UK Breeding 7500 pairs. The reason the Raven`s do not leave the Tower of London is that they have their wings clipped it does not hurt them.Well you did ask now you know lots about raven`s

Andean condor roost and breed at 5,000 m.  so, i think, they fly near this limit.

I used to own chickens and roosters. Neither can fly not even a few meters. They are able to jump/flight to there perch and thats about it.\n\nWing to body size ratio prevents their flight.

From a foot to inches.Then the fly will leap into the air before starting it's tiny wings a beating as to fly.

A comparable question: How long is a piece of string?

The open sea covers about 70% of the earth to an average depth of about 2 miles. It is little wonder then, that some 312 species of birds in 17 families have adapted to this vast aquatic environment. These are the seabirds, that range in size from the large albatrosses with wingspans of up to 12 feet to the diminutive petrels that were named after the Apostle Peter by early seafarers because of their habit of dangling their feet in the water while hovering just above the sea surface, giving the appearance that they were walking on water

just what is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? \n\n\nWhat do you mean, an African or European Swallow?To begin with, I needed basic kinematic data on African and European swallow species. \n\n    \n  South African Swallow\n(Hirundo spilodera) European Swallow\n(Hirundo rustica) \nAlthough 47 of the 74 worldwide swallow species are found in Africa,1 only two species are named after the continent: the West African Swallow (Hirundo domicella) and the South African Swallow (Hirundo spilodera), also known as the South African Cave Swallow. \n\nSince the range of the South African Swallow extends only as far north as Zaire,2 I felt fairly confident that this was the non-migratory African species referred to in previous discussions of the comparative and cooperative weight-bearing capabilities of African and European swallows.3 \n\nKinematic data for both African species was difficult to find, but the Barn or European Swallow (Hirundo rustica) has been studied intensively, and kinematic data for that species was readily available. \n\n\n\nIt’s a simple question of weight ratiosA 54-year survey of 26,285 European Swallows captured and released by the Avian Demography Unit of the University of Capetown finds that the average adult European swallow has a wing length of 12.2 cm and a body mass of 20.3 grams.4 \n\nBecause wing beat frequency and wing amplitude both scale with body mass,5 and flight kinematic data is available for at least 22 other bird species,6 it should be possible to estimate the frequency (f ) and amplitude (A) of the European Swallow by a comparison with similar species. With those two numbers, it will be possible to estimate airspeed (U). \n\nIn order to maintain airspeed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?Actually, wrong. By comparing the European Swallow with bird species of similar body mass, we can estimate that the swallow beats its wings 18 times a second with an amplitude of 18 cm: \n\nSpecies Body mass Frequency Amplitude \nZebra Finch 13 g 27 Hz 11 cm \nEuropean Swallow 20 g ≈ 18 Hz? ≈ 18 cm? \nDowny Woodpecker 27 g 14 Hz 29 cm \nBudgerigar 34 g 14 Hz 15 cm \n\nNote that even the tiny Zebra Finch flaps its wings no more than 27 times a second while cruising. \n\nIf we ignore body mass and look only at bird species with a similar wingspan, we can estimate an average frequency of 14 beats per second and an amplitude of 23 cm: \n\nSpecies Wingspan Frequency Amplitude \nBudgerigar 27 cm 14 Hz 15 cm \nEuropean Swallow ≈ 28–30 cm ≈ 14 Hz? ≈ 23 cm? \nDowny Woodpecker 31 cm 14 Hz 29 cm \nEuropean Starling 35 cm 14 Hz 26 cm \n\nBy averaging all 6 values, we can estimate that an average European Swallow flies at cruising speed with a frequency of roughly 15 beats per second, and an amplitude of roughly 22 cm. \n\nSkip a bit, BrotherLast month’s article on The Strouhal Number in Cruising Flight showed how simplified flight waveforms that graph amplitude versus wavelength can be useful for visualizing the Strouhal ratio (fA/U), a dimensionless parameter that tends to fall in the range of 0.2–0.4 during efficient cruising flight. \n\nFor a European Swallow flying with our estimated wingbeat amplitude of 24 cm, the predicted pattern of cruising flight ranges from a Strouhal number (St) of 0.2: \n\n   \n\n... to a less efficient 0.4: \n\n   \n\nIf the first diagram (St = 0.2) is accurate, then the cruising speed of the European Swallow would be roughly 16 meters per second (15 beats per second * 1.1 meters per beat). If the second diagram (St = 0.4) is accurate, then the cruising speed of the European Swallow would be closer to 8 meters per second (15 beats per second * 0.55 meters per beat). \n\nIf we settle on an intermediate Strouhal value of 0.3: \n\n   \n\nWe can estimate the airspeed of the European Swallow to be roughly 11 meters per second (15 beats per second * 0.73 meters per beat). \n\nThree shall be the number thou shalt countAirspeed
