Phillip Littleford, also known as Phil Littleford or Dr. Philip Littleford, was 45 when he disappeared after a float plane crashed in Iliamna Bay, Alaska, on August 28, 1984. He is described as a Caucasian male, brown hair and brown eyes, 6 feet 1 inch and about 185 pounds. Witnesses reported he attempted to swim to shore after the plane went down; that was the last confirmed sighting.

At the time he vanished he was reportedly wearing a bright dark blue long-sleeved turtleneck, blue jeans, brown Red-Ball chest waders with dark feet, and a heavy-duty diving-style watch with a plastic band. The Alaska State Troopers handled the investigation, and the case is recorded in missing persons databases. The overview notes a presumed drowning after the crash, but no definitive locating of Phillip has been recorded.

Did anyone in the area at the time or with knowledge of float plane operations on Iliamna Lake have information that could help clarify what happened that day?
