Flight 2469 was a C-54 Skymaster with 44 crew and passengers on it`s way from Anchorage, Alaska to Great Falls, Montana. It never got there and is believed to have crashed in the Yukon wilderness. A very important search and rescue effort; named Operation Mike  ensued immediately; involving 7000 men and dozens of aircraft; some of which also crashed during the search. The CBC (being Canada`s national public broadcaster) is streaming a new documentary about this story here: https://gem.cbc.ca/media/skymaster-down/s01. And you can join the Facebook group that continues the search for flight 2469 here:  https://www.facebook.com/OperationMike/
