The current status: We’ve tested the fit, and our welder tack-welded the pipes while making final adjustments to ensure everything aligns perfectly 👌🏼 After that, we removed it again so he could complete the welding properly in his workshop. Now, it’s off to the electropolisher!✨ We expect to have it back in early April, and we can’t wait! #solararchitecture #solarpanels #solarenergy #diy #sail #sailing #sailboat #circumnavigation #reeloftheday

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.

Cool old boat with a very happy crew. The captain is rocking out and enjoying some wine while the lady takes in the view of a glorious afternoon on the water.

Sailing 800 miles upwind to the Caribbean might have been our best passage ever! Normally right on the nose we had a light wind close reach/close hauled passage just before Christmas when we sailed from the Bahamas direct to St Martin. Here's a clip from the next episode of Distant Shores Season 10. Do you dream of making an ocean passage?
