Matias Perez
Matias Perez was a Portuguese born, Cuban resident, who started a canopy business in Havana in the 19th century. He was carried away with the ever increasing popularity of aerostatic aircraft, and became a balloon pilot, ascending at least three times before he disappeared while attempting an aerostatic flight from Havana's Plaza de Marte (today, Parque Central) on June 28, 1856.
A few days earlier he had made a successful attempt, flying several miles. His second try, however, became part of Cuba's folklore: when somebody or something disappears into thin air, Cubans say: "''Voló como Matías Pérez''" (flew away like Matias Perez).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.check-six.com/lib/Famous_Missing/Perez-1856.htm )〕
==Early career==
Matías Perez, originally a Portuguese citizen, moved to Cuba and started a successful business selling canopies and awnings. He was known as "The king of the canopies" at the time. But it is said that he always had an interest in aeronautics. Before buying a balloon from the French pilot Eugène Godard, Matías had a friendly relationship with the pilot, and they had taken flight together from Havana on May 21, 1856.〔url=http://www.radioenciclopedia.cu/cultural-news/curiosities/flew-away-like-matias-perez-20121006/〕
