These planes were flying in international airspace at the time of the attack.

Depends on how you define "international air space" and if it is defined differently for some countries as opposed to others.

These guys Luis is referencing were making regular encroachments into Cuban air space, if I recall, in an effort to bait the Havana regime into an incident. I guess their ploy worked. But ... I don't think they were just wayward pilots who wandered off course and were summarily butchered.
