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.

We hope you—and every sea turtle—had a turtley awesome World Sea Turtle Day this past Monday! 🌎🐢 As sailors and boaters, we share the ocean with some of its oldest and most extraordinary species: sea turtles. For over 100 million years, they've navigated the same waters we now sail. Today, we honor them. As stewards of the sea, let's protect those who call it home. How we can help: - Dim lights near nesting beaches - Avoid anchoring near turtle grass beds - Support turtle conservation efforts Let's shell-ebrate sea turtles by being a part of the solution! 💚 #SeaTurtles #SeaTurtleConservation
