'Forget Wright brothers, it was an Indian who first flew a plane in 1895'

So Indians didnt invent Aeroplane before Wright brothers?
A google search says different

Indian invented aeroplane before wright brothers ?

Shivkar Bapuji Talpade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

People were aspiring to fly long before Wright brothers made a really 'flying' machine, I am not sure if in 1895 Mr.Talpade was successful in making a working flying machine that could actually fly, but I will not rule out such a possibility either without sufficiently researching the matter. :)

However, the news is an old one, your Wiki link shows two mainstream newspaper links from 2003 & 2004, while ToI link is not working properly, the Deccan Herald link is working.

Flying high - Deccan Herald

Further, Google also throws up more newspaper links.

The Source claiming the Vimana "Story" was made up by a person , fabrication

There is no "Evidence" or any text , the story was made up , by a man who performed "a mystical" view into past and came up with story in last 50-60 years
 
Didnt you get the Sarcasm right? Who the kid then :lol:
Sorry i did not know you were sarcastic..actually all these sources claim indian invented plane are local hinuvata sources which has no credibility
 
Flights were made as early as the 16th century - but not one could be sustained. The newspapers mention Talpade's flying in 1895, but it lasted for only 37 seconds. He flew, but it was not a sustained flight.

He did fly - for a short period of time. But Wrights are credited with building the first powered sustained flight.
 
i am really worried about Neil Armstrong ... he will get a instant heart attack if he was told that Indians was first to step on moon

first it was Plastic Surgery , etc etc ...
Plastic surgery - recorded history.
Test flight - recorded history.

Moon landing - nope. Not in any of our ancient books.
