A set of 14 guiding rules for scientific theorisation, largely gained through watching bad practice amongst palaeontologists and avoiding their mistakes.  These rules cover both inductive, i.e. experimental sciences, and historical sciences. 78e77690a021d01f.png Four stages in the arm and leg flapping cycle of flying dromaeosaurs (i.e. vodroms) 90° apart.
The front wings work much like modern birds, though the shoulder is a bit lower.
Unlike the arms which generate thrust by moving down through the air, the legs push outwards, a bit like the legs in breast-stroke.  The knees & toes point sideways, away from the body.  The very long thrust-generating toe feathers point first upwards, then outwards.  The fossils of those feathers show they are obviously thrust-generating primary feathers, so they must point at right-angles to the direction of flight, not backwards as typically idiotic palaeontologists show them. e8e094cfff20369b.jpg 8fbafd32078bdad4.mp4 d9e57771e8e4c2d2.mp4
