Mathias Rust

Mathias Rust (Wedel, 1 juni 1968) is een Duits amateurpiloot en vredesactivist. Hij is vooral bekend geworden doordat hij op 28 mei 1987 op 18-jarige leeftijd met een Cessna 172P op een brug in de buurt van het Rode Plein in Moskou landde. Hij voerde deze actie naar eigen zeggen uit om de mensheid vrede te brengen. Hij droomde van een wereld die hij Lagonia noemde en waarin kapitalisten en communisten vreedzaam samenleven.
