Missing C-54 Group Needs Your Help

On 26 Jan 50,
USAF C-54D 42-72469 failed to arrive at Great Falls MT on a
flight from Anchorage AK. The last known position was over Snag,
Yukon Territory, Canada. A massive joint US-Canadian search was
conducted, but the aircraft and its victims were never found.
With 44 people on board this is probably the largest unresolved
missing aircraft case in North America.
Family
members and interested researchers are spearheading an effort to
renew the search for this aircraft. If you have not done so
already, please consider joining his facebook page, Operation
Mike, at
www.facebook.com/operationmike.
This page serves
as a place for people interested in this accident to connect,
and as new (or forgotten)
information is discovered, it is being posted here for all to
see and discuss.

AAIR has been featured in the
Smithsonian magazine.
