Center of Gravity Ruins Dinosaur Flying

Purveyors of the dinosaur-to-bird evoporn trip over facts, ignore serious problems, and pretend that evolutionists are all in agreement on the subject. There have been several attempts to present fossilized material as feathers or protofeathers, but there is no actual evidence for it.

Indeed, the evolution of the feather itself would be a secular miracle. There are also numerous major changes necessary (with no transitional forms in the fossil record) for dino-to-bird evolution. A hypothetical winged dinosaur cannot fly because of the center of gravity problem.

Flying critters were designed to have the correct center of gravity so they can have control. While it may not exactly be biomimetics, it is clear that human flight drew inspiration from what is seen in creation. Evolutionists seem to think that if a dinosaur had feathers, it was on the way to becoming a bird. Not hardly!

Have you ever flown on an airplane where the flight crew repositioned people and cargo closer to the front? You may or may not have already understood the reason, but this is to ensure that the center of gravity (CoG) of the plane is within appropriate limits, or else the plane can enter an unstable upward pitch.

The airplane would still possess basic features and controls for flight, such as engines for thrust, wings for lift, elevators, ailerons, and so forth. However, if the CoG is too far aft of the aircraft’s “stick-fixed neutral point,”1 then those features and controls are not enough: The plane’s flight can become very unstable, possibly even leading to catastrophic loss. Aircrew and aeronautical engineers are aware of the critical importance of CoG location to keep an airplane properly balanced.
