Another person did the same thing in East Germany a few years later, which is possibly even more impressive (as the security was likely much higher there):
I saw a documentary about it on TV last year, although I can't remember what channel, and nothing relevant seems to come up on youtube.
Fascinating people! It would be interesting to drop in on Ivo and have a chat with him, although it would probably be good to get PPR first so he doesn't try and shoot the plane down (and bush-tires might be a good idea, unless you know the runway condition).
