Richard Lee Stoltzfus, 68, disappeared after his Super Cub went down near the mouth of the Seal River in Yakutat, Alaska, on August 16, 2011. He was the pilot; the only other person aboard was passenger John S. Dick. The wreckage was found the same day the crash is believed to have occurred, reportedly shortly after takeoff, and search teams began looking in the remote Seal River terrain.

On August 21, 2011, the body of John S. Dick was sighted near the shore by a passing plane, confirming the crash was fatal for the passenger. Richard Stoltzfus was never found and the official search was ended a few days later. Local pilots continued to watch for signs of him on flights to lodges and fishing areas, but no confirmed trace has been reported. It remains unclear whether Stoltzfus survived the impact and wandered off or was killed and his remains were not located.

Does anyone who flew in that area around August 2011 or has knowledge of search efforts remember seeing anything that might help locate Stoltzfus?
