Archaeologist have found sophisticated pre-Incan sculptures made in the
shapes very similar to that of airplanes, jets, helicopters and space shuttles.
These small gold figurines are approximately two inches in length and
estimated to date between 500 and 800 BCE. Some archaeologists have
suggested that the figures depict animals, however, this seems most unlikely.
Another interesting note is the wings of the aircraft have small ornamental
drawings on them, many in the form of spirals. To the ancient Indians of
South America these spirals represented ascending and descending.
These sculptures could be evidence of many things. Some say birds, other
say advanced Inca intelligence, and still others the influence of ancient aliens.

In 1997 researchers built scaled up models of these artifacts to test their
flight capabilities. The exact specifications were scaled up and made of
materials used for flight of small radio controlled craft. The only addition
was a small engine and propeller. The scaled up versions of the ancient
aircraft flew remarkably well performing loops, rolls, turns, as well as take
off and landing under the radio remote control.
The Dream of Flight has been in the imaginations of humankind since
they watched in awe as birds soared effortlessly through the sky. According
to accepted history, it wasn't until the 1780s that two Frenchmen achieved
lighter-than-air flight when they were lifted into the air in a hot air balloon
near Paris. Since then, we have had many historical evidence and facts
that humankind attempted and achieved flight, and since then, in we have
had the amazing achievements of the 16th century Leonardo Da Vinci
design of a winged aircraft and a crude kind of helicopter, and then the
flight capabilities. The exact specifications were scaled up and made of

Abydos, Egypt & Ancient Airplanes: In this image
one is able to depict the clear shapes of what seem to
be an airplane dropping some kind of bomb, package,
or object and to the upper left the figure of what
seems like a modern day helicopter.
Even more controversial than the model airplane are
the enigmatic carvings found in the temple of Abydos,
Egypt by Dr. Ruth Hover. Hover photographed a wall
panel which had been revealed when a newer
overlaying panel crumbled and fell off. The older
panel beneath contained embossed images that
resemble modern aircraft as seen in profile.
In 1898, a peculiar six-inch wooden object was found
in a tomb at Saqquara, Egypt that dated back to
about 200 BCE. The object had a body or fuselage,
seven-inch wings that curved downward slightly, a
fixed rudder and a tail. It looked very much like a
modern airplane or glider.
