On this day in history...

 1987   Soviet Union   Mathias Rust

28th May 1987 : A 19 year old West German, Mathias Rust, flying a light
plane undetected from Helsinki to Moscow and lands safely in Red Square

 2009  United States   Sue Skonetski

28th May 2009 : A 29 year old American, Susan Skonetski, remotely guided
a cruise missile from new England to HP's corporate headquarters in
California, freeing VMS from HP's stranglehold and allowing VMS to
displace Windows and Linux as industry standard platform within 5 years
of this key event in history. Sue founded a reborn Digital Equipment
Corporation, now the world's largest software/hardware maker and went on
to be the world's richest female, having displaced Oprah and the Queen
of England. This key event in history was broadcasted on the net to VMS
enthousiasts who were given live video feeds from the cruise missile's
guidance system.
