Muscles and A Dragon in Flight

Muscles
An intact dragon corspe is even rarer than a dragon skeleton, or so some say. A dragon's muscle system is similar to that of a cat's. The most amazing muscles of all are those that help the dragon fly. Because a dragon's bones are so light (which is surprising to me considering how big it is!!), and its muscles so strong, it is able to soar through the sky with relatice ease.
- Alar pectoral: main flight muscle
- Alar cleidomastoid: draws wing up and forward
- Alar deltoid: draws wing up and forward
- Alar carpi ularnis: allows wings to warp and twist
- Alar triceps: fold and unfold wings
- Alar carpi radialus: allows wings to warm and twist
- Alar biceps: fold and unfold wings
- Alar lattisimus dorsai: draws wings up and back

A Dragon In Flight
The easiest way for a dragon to take flight is to leap from a high place, diving to gain speed. But if that isn't possible, it will leap into the air, snapping its tail downward and pushing off with its hind legs. Once aloft, a dragon can soar for hours with little effort. Usually, if on a high place or on the ground, the dragon will probably start walking at first, then go into a slow to fast run, and finally leaps into the air, then the dragon is in the air!
