(2008-08-02) | Good point ulmus.Deadalus was an architect and mechanical engineer.he built the Minoan pallace and labyrinth.When he revealed the secret of the labyrinth to Theseus, was chased by king Minos.In order to escape from the island he constructed two windgliders propelled by foot power like the bicycle,but instead of the wheel had propel.The technological institute of Massachuset in 1998 constructed such device and was tested by the bicyclist Kanelo Kanelopoulos.He flew from Crete and in 3 hours and 54 minutes and landed on Santorini thus proving the possibility of such feat during the prehistorical times |
