Intsia bijuga is an evergreen tree that usually grows to about 25–35 m (82–115 ft) tall but may reach 50 m (160 ft), a trunk diameter between 60 and 125 cm (24 and 49 in), and buttresses up to 4 m (13 ft) tall and 2 m (6 ft 7 in) wide.
Paul also estimated that T. dossi would have been 7 meters (23 ft) long and weighed 1,000 kilograms (2,200 lb). [5] Adult length estimates among other researchers range between 7 and 8 metres (23 and 26 ft). [2] [7] Tenontosaurus was a facultative quadruped, capable of assuming either a bipedal or quadrupedal stance.
Typical trim tabs on aileron, rudder and elevator.
