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.

È giusto stare nel presente, non pre-occuparsi (“occuparsi prima che accada qualcosa”), nè vivere nel passato, con i ricordi a riempire le giornate. Ogni tanto fa anche bene fermarsi e fare un check. Quest’oggi andiamo a fare un’escursione e prima di partire c’è il momento “Preso tutto? La crema? Asciugamano? Libro?”, tutti step mentali che ci aiutano a essere organizzati e pronti al pomeriggio che ci aspetta. Vedo molte analogie con quanto mostrato nel video. È un giorno di check mentali e organizzativi. Presa la crema? Siamo pronti per l’escursione? Siamo pronti per il domani? C.
