What do you get when you mix Cold War espionage, an 80-year-old warbird, and a pilot crazy enough to hijack his own airplane to escape communism? In this video, I fly Mira Slovak’s original Bücker Jungmann, a legendary German-designed WWII-era biplane with an unbelievable backstory. From Cold War defection to aerobatic stunts, this flight is packed with cinematic footage, vintage aircraft vibes, and a slice of aviation history you’ve probably never heard. Miroslav “Mira” Slovak was a Czech Airlines pilot who hijacked his own plane in 1953 to flee the Soviet regime, eventually becoming a U.S. citizen, air race champion, and aerobatic pilot. His story is straight out of a movie—and now, his historic airplane lives on. We took this 1930s warbird to the skies for a day of vintage aerobatics, tailwheel flying, and breathtaking air-to-air shots. Whether you’re into vintage planes, Cold War history, general aviation, or just love epic flying footage, this one’s for you.

Sailing when the wind is almost imperceptible is no small feat at this scale. For boats of this size, offering this level of comfort, it is even a real signature. If Gunboats continue to glide where others start their engines, it is no coincidence. It is the result of a rigid structure, a finely balanced sail plan, and a hull design engineered to transform the slightest breeze into motion. A silent but very real performance. Thanks to sails designed specifically for each Gunboat. This is a major collaboration with our partners to harness the real engine that drives Gunboats forward: the wind.
