Actually, it was the Wikipedia article that sparked my interest. I'm thinking of writing an alternate history, and it'll feature very heavily such things as vimanas (vimaanaa? vimaani? what's the Sanskrit plural?) and such. I'm just looking for ideas and facts, even dubious ones, to base the history on. There's a hell of a lot of good reference material on Sanskrit, but not so much on their legendarium.
