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.

Unexpected wildlife encounters are by far the very best travel experiences, like this chance meeting with a sperm whale that SeaTrek Sailing Adventures was able to share with our guests on a cruise across the Banda Sea in Indonesia in 2019. So, how can you see them? Whales are unpredictable creatures and it's not always easy to know where they are, but they are easily seen once they surface to take a breath, with their their tell-tale waterspout being a dead giveaway. On SeaTrek Sailing Adventure cruises when we are sailing across the Banda Sea and up through Raja Ampat waters between September and April, there will often be a huge cry from the crew of 'paus, paus! (whale, whale!), and all our guests will rush to the side of the boat with binoculars in hand to catch a glimpse of these magnificent creatures - as happened just this very week with a very up close and personal encounter on Katharina in September 2019. It's not just sperm whales that we see on our cruises, and there are many different species around, from spinner dolphins all the way up to blue whales. If you would like to take a chance to see whales on the open sea with SeaTrek while enjoying all our other myriad experiences, contact us now and find out more.
