Gawd...vimanas aren't temple roof tops......what freakin nonsense. I'm an Indian, and believe me, vimanas mean flying vehicles. Even the airport in hindi means Viman-sthal. Vimana means an air craft!!!!
The Mahabharata epic is no hoax. I guess its a bit unruffling that there has been a mention of ariel vehicles and powerful projectiles around 3000 bc, long before da vinci even thought of desingning an aircraft!
But its true, even though poor evidence exists in this regard, I guess unlike fairy tales we do not speak of flying humans/demons, we describe flying vehicles...which is more believable

I note you're from Amsterdam. Hindi may not be your first language so you may have misheard the words. In Hindi, the word for "airport" is "vAnaspatika" and the word for plane/aircraft is vAyuyAna.

Check it out for yourself: www.wordanywhere.com...

("sthal" is not a word ending in Hindu. In the Germanic languages, yes... not in Hindu.)

Interesting, since there are paintings (this one from the Ramayana) that show demons flying: www.learnnc.org...

And Hanuman flies, and the demon who caught Rama's wife also flew. Then there's the flying horse: doormann.tripod.com/fly_horse.htm ... and many others.

We must have read different books... mine certainly had tales where demons flew by various means (none of them aircraft.)
