If you want to enter the mysterious realm of 'odd encounters' they are many and Ancient Aliens is not always wrong
Well, I guess it's always a possibility...! ;)

Weren't the Tuatha De Danaan supposed to have reached Ireland in flying ships?
great but hard to interpret. I once read a similar story about York. Airship , creature, stoned to death by townsfolk

I desperately want this to be the inspiration for the airships in the Final Fantasy series. I think I'm going to pretend it is.
