Fig. 5. Calculated curves for the chaffinch Fringilla coelebs of (A) mechanical power and (B) effective lift:drag ratio (based on metabolic power) for different values of the power fraction (q). These curves have been extended to 25 m s–1 because chaffinches were observed flying at nearly this speed, but the calculation is insecure at such high speeds.
