What is the chest muscle of flying birds called that gives them the ability to fly?

I know it is some specific word for birds. It is the muscle that connects their wings to their chest bones that gives the flying birds the ability to fly. Non-flying birds do not have this muscle. It's not pectoral, it is a certain specific bird word and I can't find it on the internet and I don't remember what page it is on in my biology book.
