On a spring day in May 1992 a twin-engine Cessna 340, tail number N69469, left Yakutat, Alaska bound for Anchorage with pilot Jeffrey Harold Roth, 45, and four passengers: his brothers Kent and Scott Roth, Timothy Thornton and Brian Barber. The last recorded contact with FAA air-traffic controllers said the aircraft was at 12,000 feet on instruments en route to Anchorage; minutes later all contact was lost and no wreckage has been publicly documented.

The NTSB classified the probable cause as a missing aircraft due to undetermined causes. Jeffrey Roth’s wife later said she heard on FAA tapes her husband mention 6,000 and icing conditions, but an FBI lab enhancement could not confirm those words. The Alaska State Troopers investigation remains open and the five men’s fates are unresolved.

If anyone saw that Cessna or was flying in southeastern Alaska in May 1992, can you share what you remember?
