I think the best story is that of Orestes Lorenzo, the Cuban fighter pilot. In 1991, he defected by flying his Mig 23 to Florida and landing at a military air base. That wasn't enough - he had left his wife and children in Cuba. So a year or two later, he flew a Cessna back to Cuba, flying 10 feet over the ocean to avoid radar. He landed on a rural highway, and picked up his wife and children. They made it back to Florida, and today they live in Orlando. He just recently flew an L-39 Albatros jet at an airshow in Cozumel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRXRBcuJE-U |
