Jesse Edward Markham Jr., 49, was last seen July 21, 1982, when he departed Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport bound for Atlanta, Georgia, and never arrived. A former Navy pilot who worked for the CIA from 1965 to 1975 and later did freelance flying, Markham was known for daredevil, risky missions. No trace of him or his airplane has been found, and his disappearance is classified as missing under suspicious circumstances with foul play suspected. The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office continues to list him as a person of interest in an open investigation.

If anyone knew Jesse, his flight plans that day, or saw the aircraft after takeoff, please share what you know.
