How can you maintain that? It's unknowable and there are lots of 19th Century accounts. duckduckgo.com/?q=modern+day+pteradactyl

Similar to the way 'extinct' hominids map to the humanoid cryptids, like Bigfoot. I can't find the reference I wanted but I did run across this.

I hate the narrowed width at the doors because it’s simply lost space and worse aerodynamics for aesthetic reasons. Never let the artists conception drive the engineering.
