FACTS ABOUT INDIA
The Indian Air Force (IAF: Bhāratīya Vāyu Senā) is the air arm of the Indian armed forces. It was officially established on 8 October 1932 as an auxiliary air force of the British Empire which honored India’s aviation service during World War II with the prefix Royal.
After India gained independence from the United Kingdom in 1947, the name Royal Indian Air Force was kept and served in the name of Dominion of India. With the government’s transition to a Republic in 1950, the prefix Royal was removed after only three years.

WHY
Why aircraft fly in stratosphere…?*
Commercial jet aircraft fly in the lower stratosphere to avoid the turbulence which is common in the troposphere below. The stratosphere is very dry; air there contains little water vapor. … Because of this, jet aircraft and weather balloons reach their maximum operational altitudes within the stratosphere.
the top of the stratosphere has a temperature of about 270 K (−3°C or 26.6°F).

akarmā dasyuḥ।
कर्महीन मनुष्य दुराचारी है।

HOW IT WORKS 
How Do Parachutes Work?*
A parachute works by forcing air into the front of it and creating a structured ‘wing’ under which the canopy pilot can fly. Parachutes are controlled by pulling down on steering lines which change the shape of the wing, cause it to turn, or to increase or decrease its rate of descent.
