Here are photos of the Military Macaw in flight, the Brown-crested Flycatcher, and the Phaon Crescent.
The Flycatcher generally has the fieldmarks of a Brown-crested. These include black base to lower mandible (more clearly visible from the side), the width of the dark area in the tail, the light underparts, and relatively subdued tertial edges. The light area in the center of the underside of the bill (which does not extend to the edge) may be skin or feathers. The drawings of flycatcher bills in Pyle seem to show no bill in this area.
