In 1987, a German teenager and novice pilot named Mathias Rust set out on a two-week flight where he visited several countries in Europe. 

What was remarkable about the flight wasn’t the age of the pilot or the distance he traveled. The reason people still remember it was where he ended up. 

Learn more about The Highly Improbable Flight of Mathias Rust and what happened in its aftermath, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
