David Allen Lowe, 29, was last seen on February 6, 1980, in the north parking lot of the old Pasadena Police Department on Davis Street in Pasadena, Texas. He was believed to have departed in a red and white 1974 Cessna 172 with tail number N890L and has not been heard from since.

Despite searches, neither Lowe nor the aircraft has been located and no significant leads have emerged. Lowe was a decorated Vietnam veteran who received the Bronze Star. Family members remain divided about what happened; some suspect he may have started a new life, while others note the plane’s disappearance and absence of a flight plan as reasons for concern.

Anyone with information about Lowe or the aircraft is asked to contact the Pasadena Police Department.
