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.

Hiking hurts…fact But if you’re in a boat with toe straps you’ll know it’s an essential part of generating power. And if it’s an ILCA, you’ll also know that the ability to hike harder for longer is one of the few natural advantages you can exploit in a strictly one design boat.

► Full test in Multihulls World N°196. The smallest model in the HH range manages to reconcile a very “performance” vision of cruising (all-carbon construction, a sleek sail plan with a 62’ / 19 m mast, and deep daggerboards in the SC version) with a hybrid propulsion system. The HH44, with its 3.2 kWp of solar panels, 50.4 kWh of Lithium-Ion batteries and two 10 kW electric motors, is capable of covering 18 nautical miles at 7.5 knots in full electric mode. The catamaran will be equipped with a very efficient hydro-generation system for charging while under sail. Diesel engines give total safety by doubling the means of propulsion. At anchor or in port, the transoms fold down on each side to create bathing platforms. This model also comes in an Ocean Cruising version with classic fiberglass construction, aluminum mast, and skeg keels. ► Builder: Hudson Yacht Group Architect: Hudson Yacht & Marine Ltd. Hull length: 44’ (13.41 m) Beam: 23’5” (7.15 m) Draft: 5’3” (1.59 m) or 3’11”/9’10” (1.2/3 m) Light displacement: 21,075/22,490 lbs (9.56/10.2 t) Mainsail: 799 sq ft (74.2 m²) Solent: 475 sq ft (44.1 m²) Gennaker: 1,603 sq ft (148.9 m²) Motors: 30 HP + 2 x 10 kW ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!
