Good job on the scaling, seems pretty accurate, but there are 5 birds. There is the California Condor too.

Pelagornis? Didn't it have a similar wingspan to Argentavis.

yep, in fact Pelagornis had a slightly larger wingspan, although it's wings were thinner and it wasn't as heavy. kind of reminds me of the rivalry of two modern day birds,  Andean condor and  wandering albatross.

Probably because the anatomy is very similar. But would can you add it to the scale?
