INTRODUCTION The history of aviation is marked by aircraft that have disappeared without a trace.1 Such flights leave a host of legal issues in their wake, and * Professor of Law, Nova Southeastern University ([email protected]). 1 It generally is agreed that Matías Pérez was the first person in history to vanish in flight—on June 29, 1856, he took off from Havana, Cuba, in a hot air balloon and was never seen again. Even today, when someone or something disappears, it is common for locals to invoke Pérez’s name. See Emma Álvarez-Tabío Albo, The City in Midair, in HAVANA BEYOND THE RUINS:CULTURAL MAPPINGS AFTER 1989, at 149, 167 (Anke Birkenmaier & Esther Vhitfield eds., Eric Felipe-Barkin trans., 2011) (explaining that Pérez “is immortalized in the colloquial phrase ‘Voló como Matías Pérez’ (He flew [away] like Matías Pérez)”).
