Indian Aviation 3000 year Ago
Permalink Closed

Dear All


Found a very intersting link which talks about Indian Aviation 3000 years ago and how there could have been airplanes and helicopters during that time. There is also a book written by an American (as usual you need an American to tell us what is good) called VIMANA I have provided the link for the book also.


Intersting read just wondering if this is true how advanced Indian civilzation was......

And I bet they had PTVs on board.


And unlike Air India today, I bet they worked.


And I bet the FAs on board were really hot Apsaras.

Air India used to have an ad campaign on this called the Pushpak Viman.


Very classy ad that talked of how aviation was not new to India.  Copy then talked of Air India's luxurious 747s.

Myth or reality is only after you buy the book and read the specifics.....
