Precisely on May 28, 1987, the pilot was a 19-year boy who wanted to seek a peaceful U.S. - Soviet. Matthias Rust was, he flew and landed in Red Square for a bridge of peace between the Soviet Union and the United States.
26 years ago, precisely on May 28, 1987, single-engine aircraft Cessna 172 landed in Red Square (Red Square) of Moscow, the capital of the Soviet Union. From existing video footage, the local community was known closed from the outside world, stunned by the presence of the plane.
Mathias_Rust 1987 - closeLebih young surprisingly, the pilot emerged from the cockpit just turned 19-year-old young man named Matthias Rust (sometimes written "Mathias").
Before he landed his plane in the middle of the Red Square in Moscow, Rust trying to fly low over the ground three times.
He deliberately tried to fly low so that people who are in the middle of the field to get out or pulled from the ground.
But as many as three times its low pass over the field proved futile.
Residents do not get off the field, they just have not moved and was struck by the presence of a low float plane many times on the field.
Rust then took the initiative to land a small plane on a bridge, not far from the Red Square. And he succeeded, he landed his plane, maneuvering for parking (Taxiing) then stop and turn off the engine.
Shortly thereafter, Rust out of the plane, complete with emaciated appearance of the glasses does not imply the existence of a threat from him.
Spontaneously, people around the Red Square in Moscow that was the friendly welcome and invited talk.
But not so with the local military soon came and immediately took it for safekeeping.

When asked by the authorities where it came from, Rust claimed from Germany. However, the local security forces are still thought that he was from East Germany, an ally of the Soviet Union.
But Rust admitted that he came from West Germany (U.S. ally), suddenly the security unbelievable shock.
Rust is the arrival of a West German citizen in Red Square (Red Square) which is the main icon Soviet Union, a hard slap to the communist country.
Upon the occurrence of these events, it shows how weak the Soviet defense to be penetrated by a small plane Cessna driven classmate Rust.
Moreover, at the time of the incident, the state leader Mikhail Gorbachev that was undergoing a "Cold War" with the United States and its allies that several other European countries are pro-American.
As a result of the tragedy of the Soviet Union embarrassing, immediately upon Soviet President Michail Gorbachev ie, fired his Defense Minister.
While the U.S. has this as a reproach, in which one of its diplomats joked, "Maybe we should build a Cessna that much."
At first, Rust embarked on a journey from Helsinki International Airport to Moscow.
Either not detected or were ignored by Soviet radar, he ended up flying through the air and landed in Red Square near the Kremlin.
Rust was detained for 18 months for disturbing Soviet airspace. "I think when the opportunity to get to Moscow about 50-50, but I sure did the right thing," recalls Rust.
"I just have to dare to do it," said Rust added, in an interview in July 2005
He also stated that the action is done by a "bridge of peace" and ease the tension between the Soviets and the U.S..
Four years earlier, the Soviet criticized for shooting down a Korean-owned commercial aircraft entered its airspace.
But with the entry of Mathias Rust Cessna plane into the airspace of the Soviet Union even managed to land him in the middle of the Red Square in Moscow, again criticized for having a weak defense.
Top of this criticism, one Russian official berketus, "You criticize us for shooting plane, now you critique anymore because we did not shoot the plane."
But somehow to be able to penetrate Soviet air defenses were at that time very sophisticated, is a highly improbable!
Moreover Rust can once successfully landed his plane in the middle of Red Square at the center of the heart of the Soviet capital, still reaping the mystery.
But according to the testimony of the military his day, is actually a small Cessna aircraft piloted by Mathias Rust is actually detected by Soviet radar.
But they let him because one of the reasons is that the plane was not armed, are harmless and do not threaten the security of the Soviet air.
