Wingspan seems very small
editThe article gives a minimum wingspan less than half the bird's length. It looked much more in field observation (Siemreap, N13.35462, E113.85985 15 July 2023), and I now that the Great Hornbill article, by comparison, shows wingspan > maximum length.

- Further browsing turns up many other sites with this same improbable dimension. Googled photos from directly below birds in flight suggest it's another case of indiscriminate web-copying. 27.96.85.195 (talk) 13:42, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
