Edward Erich Herzog, 46, vanished on May 25, 1991, when the Rockwell S-2R Thrush Commander he was piloting crashed into waters near Larsen Bay, Kodiak, Alaska. Witnesses reported the plane flying unusually low, skimming close to the water just before impact. Weather that day included a 100-foot obscured ceiling, roughly one mile visibility, and dense fog.

The aircraft struck the water about one mile from shore and sank to a depth of 185 feet, complicating recovery. Investigators linked the accident to the hazardous conditions; the low ceiling and poor visibility likely impaired navigation and situational awareness. Herzog is presumed to have perished in the crash.

Did anyone in the Kodiak or Larsen Bay area at the time recall details about the flight path, the pilot, or unusual weather conditions that day?
