The world's earliest accounts of
flying "machines" had been mentioned in the ancient
texts from India called the Vedas (Hindu poems), especially in the
Mahabharata, Bhágavata Purána and Rámáyana, by the name
of "vimana" (in some modern Indian languages the word for
"aircraft"), These craft could even travel in space as
there is the mention of a battle on the moon between two
craft. They were described in various shapes and sizes: cigar
shaped, blimp-like, saucer-shaped, triangular and double-decked.
(See: www.hinduwisdom.info and Wikipedia.)
The
book: "A Dweller on Two Planets" (1894), describes a
certain Atlantean cigar-shaped flying machine which resembles a
modern passenger aircraft, though without wings and a tail. (Seen in
the image right, from the book.) From its
descriptions, it doesn't rely on aero-dynamic forces, but instead
uses the forces that could be considered
gravitational/anti-gravitational. Certain types of these machines were
also able to travel under water like a submarine.
This flying machine is called a "vailx" (or Valix), and is also mentioned in the ancient Sanskrit texts from India as "vailix" ("vailixi" in plural form) as the flying craft of the Ashvins (gods). It is said that when the 18 year old author of "A Dweller on Two Planets" channeled this information, he could impossibly have known of these ancient Sanskrit texts. Also, besides some early experimentations, airplanes wouldn't been invented until the year 1899, at the time when the American Wright Brothers designed their first aircraft: a small biplane glider flown as a kite.
Quoting from page 75 of the book "A Dweller on Two Planets":
"Our vailx was of the middle traffic−size, these vessels being made in four standard lengths: number one, about twenty−five feet; number two, eighty feet; number three, something like one hundred and fifty−five feet, while the largest was yet two hundred feet longer than the third size. These long spindles were in fact round, hollow needles of aluminium, formed of an outer and an inner shell between which were many thousands of double T braces, an arrangement productive of intense rigidity and strength. All the partitions made other braces of additional resistant force. From amidships the vessels tapered toward either end to sharp points. Most vailxi were provided with an arrangement allowing, when desired, an open promenade deck at one end. Windows of crystal, of enormous resistant strength, were in rows like portholes along the sides, a few on top, and others set in the floor, thus affording a view in all directions."
"Aerial-submarine vessel
entering the water"
(From "A Dweller on Two Planets")
Besides the influence from the Sanskrit texts, in the book
there are also used words that are similar to words of Meso-American
languages (for example the word: "Incal"), Old Greek and
Latin. Not only the more frequent use of the character "x"
in words, but also the "-i" suffix in the plural form is
clearly present in both the Greek and Latin languages. The English
pronunciation of the word: "vailx" or "vailix"
is remarkably similar to the Latin word: "velox", from
which the "velocity" originated. In modern language we could
perhaps translate "vailx" to a "speeder".
Also
the book: "The Story of Atlantis" (1896), by William
Scott-Elliot, clearly mentioned this kind of flying machines before
the Wright brothers made their first successful flight. Here they were
called "air-boats" because their shape looked like a boat
but without a deck. They would be able to travel around 100 miles per
hour but only up to a height of a few hundred feet. First they
existed from very thin wood but were later made of an alloy of light
metals that made it sturdier and even lighter, and what looked white
like aluminium. It could raise vertically and move horizontally due
to a propelling force that was of an etheric nature, and that was
guided from a generator in the middle of the ship to two flexible
horizontal and eight fixed vertical tubes and exhausted through the
same. The angle of the flexible horizontal tubes were controllable so
that the angle of the propelling force could be changed. According to
the book, its information is based upon clairvoyant research and
apparently the information of the Theosophical Society. (This book is
fully readable at: www.sacred-texts.com/atl/soa.)
In
his readings, psychic intuitive Edgar Cayce mentioned ships
that "sailed both in the air and under water":
"The
entity then acted in the capacity of one who guided the ships that
sailed both in the air and under water; also was the maker of that
which produced the elevators and the connecting tubes that were used
by compressed air and steam and the metals in their
emanations."
(From: Edgar Cayce Reading:
2157-1)
According to the material of Edgar Cayce, these ships were propelled from the ground by a power station that sent invisible rays to these ships that could get through everything. In other words, today we could say that the power was wirelessly beamed to them. Amidst the power station there was a special artificially crafted stone, called the "fire stone", and it was only known to initiates for how to craft it.
American psychic intuitive Paul Solomon also mentioned and described these Atlantean flying machines in one of his "Source Readings" (reading #5, March, 1972). A small excerpt from the text:
"Now
this is Poseida, and this is fantastic. It’s like a different world
altogether because there are flying machines all over. I see so many
of them flying. Now you (Harry Snipes, the conductor) were a
pilot of a machine, a flying machine that worked in this way: the
power of this machine comes from two sources, from above and from the
earth side. There is a magnetism from the Sun or from the celestial
forces that draws upon the ship and there is magnetism from the earth
that draws upon the ship. These ships operate by creating a balance
between the two forces. Solar energy is used to counteract the
magnetism of the earth. The power that provides the thrust is on the
nature of what we would call a laser beam that operates through a
copper conductor that runs in two long channels along the base of the
ship. The ship has a shape like a long cylinder, no wings, only these
two runners along the bottom that appear as copper."

In the second part of this reading, Paul Solomon also mentioned another type of flying machine described as small winged aircraft:
"Channel:
I see another unusual flying machine. I don’t know where this is. I
assume this must be part of the Atlantean existence. This is a
one-man craft. It is ridden similar to the manner of the motorcycle
without wheels, but it has curved wings; that is, the wings extend
outward and curve downward at the tips, just slightly longer than a
man’s arms, maybe two feet longer on each side. Now these
machines are black; the legs of the man wrap around a cylinder which
produces the propelling force, but I see nothing of fire or smoke
vapor. This is an electro-magnetic force. It’s activated by a
copper core that runs about three quarters of the length. It appears
hollow in the back. It relates to another force on the other side and
they seem to develop some sort of polarity in relation to each other
to equalize pressure or magnetic force on both sides of the
ship. Now
the body would seem to be in direct contact with this core that runs
along the topside of the machine and the body is lying upon the
machine facing forward. The controls are operated by the hands
and fingers on either side of the machine as the arms reach around
the machine and forward. Now the protective shield in front of
the face again is not transparent, but would seem transparent from
the side on which the operator reclines, for it has a sensitive
screen that reveals images of that which it is approaching. They
seem to be capable of going high into space, somehow, with no harmful
effects to the rider."

"...saucer
shaped of generally trapezoidal cross-section with three
hemispherical engine pods on the underside."
"They
used a mechanical anti-gravity device driven by engines developing
approximately 80,000 horse power."
In her novel: "Tillbaka til Atlantis" (1991)
("Back to Atlantis"), Swedish medium and writer Mariana
Stjerna also described oval shaped (saucer-shaped) Atlantean airships
that could hang motionless in the air that were called - like in the
Mahabharata - "vimana".
The chariot that had been witnessed and described by the Biblical prophet Ezekiel might have been such an saucer shaped craft. The description of "wheels within wheels" hints to a saucer shaped craft, the "eyes" that where inside the rings may have been exhaust ports or port holes and the crystal-like firmament (also translated as: "vault") above their heads sounds like a transparent dome on top of it. (See Ezekiel 1:1-28)
Edgar Cayce mentioned in his descriptions of Atlanean flying craft: "for the manners of transportation, the manners of communications were such as Ezekiel described at a later date" (Cayce 1859-1). According to trance clairvoyant Dr. Douglas James Cottrell, Ezekiel witnessed a "vehicle that would run by gravity and anti-gravity means". (See the video: "Ezekiel's wheel, the Garden of Eden, and the Dinosaurs' demise", by Rammsteinregeln.)
There were also four beings inside that craft that - because of their odd appearance and manner of movement - it seems that they could have been angelic beings which were possibly not from Earth. Many Bible scholars believe them to be Cherubs; a certain class of angels. From Ezekiel 1:4-19:
"And I looked, and,
behold, a
whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding
itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof
as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
Also out
of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And
this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man. And every
one had four faces, and every one had four wings. And their feet were
straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a
calf's foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass.
And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four
sides; and they four had their faces and their wings. Their wings
were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went
every one straight forward. As for the likeness of their faces, they
four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right
side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four
also had the face of an eagle. Thus were their faces: and their wings
were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to
another, and two covered their bodies.
And they went every one
straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; and they
turned not when they went. As for the likeness of the living
creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like
the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living
creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth
lightning. And the living creatures ran and returned as the
appearance of a flash of lightning. Now as I beheld the living
creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures,
with his four faces.
The appearance of the wheels and their
work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one
likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel
in the middle of a wheel. When they went, they went upon their four
sides: and they turned not when they went. As for their rings, they
were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of
eyes round about them four. And when the living creatures went, the
wheels went by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up
from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
Whither-soever the
spirit was to go, they went, thither was their spirit to go; and the
wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living
creature was in the wheels. When those went, these went; and when
those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the
earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of
the living creature was in the wheels. And the likeness of the
firmament upon the heads of the living creature was as the colour of
the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above."
Also in the "Hakatha"; the"Laws of the Babylonians", there is the actual mention of flying machines and that they received the knowledge of flight from "those from upon high" (?):
"The
privilege of operating a
flying machine is great. The knowledge of flight is among the most
ancient of our inheritances. A gift from 'those from upon high'. We
received it from them as a means of saving many
lives."

From Nürnberg's newspaper from april 4, 1561
(Full image with
original article at wikimedia.org)
On 14 April 1561, the newspaper of the city Nürnberg described a battle in the sky between fast moving balls, crosses and tubes (see image above). After about an hour these objects would have crashed to the earth, where they seemed to burn and finally crumbled on the ground with lots of smoke. At present day, this story is a popular example from UFOs in the past, because nobody can explain for certain what actually happened here. The tubes in the depiction seem to look like vailxi, while the balls could perhaps represent flying saucers. The black arrow probably illustrates a compass needle that indicates north, to imply that the scene was witnessed in the eastern direction.
The futuristic looking Atlantean vailxi bear an uncanny resemblance to those kind of cigar-shaped UFOs which had been reported from as early as 1942 to this day. (See: www.ufoevidence.org) Maybe the earliest known official report of a similar object did come from the report by the crew of 61 Sqdn. Captain W/O Lever, during the raid on Turin, at the night of November 28/29th in the year 1942:
"The
object was seen by the entire crew of the above aircraft. They
believe it to have been 200-300 feet in length and its width is
estimated at 1/5th or 1/6th of its length. The speed was estimated at
500 m.p.h., and it had four pairs of red lights spaced at equal
distances along its body. These lights did not appear in any way like
exhaust flames; no trace was seen. The object kept a level course.
The crew saw the object twice during the raid and brief details are
given below."

Curious object in the
middle of
the picture
In the year 2007, a story surfaced about a city and an ancient space ship on the far side of the moon (www.angelismarriti.it) from someone who called himself William Rutlegde and claimed to had been a member of the Apollo 20 crew. He posted some of his videos on his Youtube channel as the user: "retiredafb". While this story had been proved to be a hoax on the "Godlike Productions" forum (see: here), especially concerning the real identity of "retiredafb", and the fake city, it is still not known what this cylindrical cigar-shaped object is supposed to be (see above), as it is shown in official NASA images from the Apollo 15 and 17 missions. (See NASA Apollo 15 image 9625 and image 9630.)
It seems to be a very large object which seems to be sticking partly out of a crater. It also stands out quite a bit in the local surroundings. Because there aren't other large rocks in the neighbouring area, it may be nothing more other than a crashed asteroid. It looks pretty much like a cigar shaped Atlantean vailix as described and pictured in Frederick S. Oliver's book, but for this object being a kind of spaceship may be considered improbable due to its supposedly enormous length of 3 to 5 km.
In any case we can not say that it is impossible to make flying saucers and such. On May 16, 2011, the Iranian press office Fars made it public that the government of Iran had created an actual flying saucer. The inventor, the Iranian nuclear physicist Mehran Tavakoli Keshe, explained that he had developed a special plasma reactor that could manipulate the field of gravity or magnetism to produce movement. Keshe had shared his knowledge with governments around the world to make sure this technology could be widely applied on many fields and that it would not fall in the hands of a small number of people who could keep it for themselves and potentially misuse it.
