With this brief notice of the chapter, it may be noted that in the construction of some of the aeroplane machine, the application of Pārada (the quick-silver) and the fire in them are some of the modern equipments of the aeroplanes and hence it is indicative of the fact (though disputed) of the existence of aeroplanes in ancient India. A more careful examination of this question and other details of the chapter have been attempted in the Study Proper.
