Machines I adore

aditya kumar August 31, 2005August 31, 2005

The machines that interest me do not work on land. They work in either the Sea or the Sky. I have been collecting warplane models for some time. Recently an “aviation” store has also opened near my office, making money matters worse for me since the last time I got my salary, it was my
