I believe the answer is:

icarus

(Other definitions for icarus that I've seen before include "In Greek myth, he flew too close to the sun and died" , "Wax-winged flyer of Greek mythology" , "High-flying son of Daedalus" , "involved in air crash" , "In Greek myth, he flew tooclose to the sun" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
