See also:

Buddhacarita 1.80: [...] pavanapathena yathāgatam jagāma.

Allegorical play (probably by Aśvaghoṣa); description of the eight  
ṛdhhi-s of the Buddha: ... (pakṣī)va vyomni yāti ... (ed. Lüders 1911,  
p. 66).

Aśvaghoṣa's Śāriputraprakaraṇa : ca vāyoḥ / (Lüders, "Das  
Śāriputraprakaraṇa, ein Drama des Aśvaghoṣa", p. 396; n. 4:  
"Sicherlich war hier vom Wandeln 'auf dem Pfade des Windes' [...] die  
Rede.")
