And what about that jetliner years back in MIA (if I'm not wrong)that dissapeared from radar for 10 minutes or so....and then reapeard? Anyone knows more about this?
(And before anyone say....I'm not a X-files fan/watcher )

Vmike,
The man you refer to is, IMHO,Captain Walter George Raymond HINCHLIFFE DFC, born 10 June 1894 died 14 March 1928 enroute Cranwell - New York.
At the time of his death he had logged over 8000hrs, more than any other pilot at that time.
I have a bound set of his log books - interesting reading for those of us interested in early airline ops especially KNILM (KLM's predecessor) and various British companys.
I've also read "The Airman Who Would Not Die". Eerie for me, given my friendship with the Hinchliffe family.
