Good work. There was an airliner, a DC-4 that crashed in 1950 I believe into Lake Michigan near the city of Benton Harbor that has never been found though there have been efforts for many years to find it.

On October 16, 1972, US House member Nick Begich and House Majority Leader Hale Boggs, of Louisiana, were two of four men on board a twin-engine Cessna 310 when the airplane disappeared during a flight from Anchorage to Juneau. An enormous search effort was launched, and after 39 days, the air search was suspended. Neither the airplane nor any of its four occupants were ever found. All were declared dead on December 29, 1972
Finally some closure for the families and loved ones of those on board. But I have to add that I'm shocked that the search for this plane and its occupants was abandoned. I mean its pretty clear where it ended up at the time. It's not exactly MH370 missing in the Pacific.
If I recall correctly (I was in high school then), they were executives from the Cousins company who were involved with the construction of the Burlington Square Mall.
Had a relative fake a disappearance and death by landing a plane on an isolated lake in Canada but made the mistake of not sinking the plane in the deep part of the lake and years later an Air Force pilot on manoeuvres spotted the outline, reported it, and the plane was recovered, found to have been scuttled and guess who went to jail.
Sorry I am unable to give you dates, but the name I have. I only put on here what I can qualify. You will find the name in the publication “Crydermans of North America” by Dianne Oslund, though the perpetrator was not a Cryderman.
Finding the plane is one thing, but they need to find the person who faked his death to make a case. So just because they found the plane it doesn’t mean the person faked his death. An how did they find this said person if he faked his death? If he faked his death , that means he was gone and unable to be questioned. So he faked his death, then lived somewhere out in the open and then when they found the plane they go to,him and say, hey you faked your death and now we know it. You didn’t think this nonsensical story through before you told it. Stick to fiction, it’s more your style. 🤷♂️

This is well beyond a "cold case", this case was in the minus 30 freezer. A few years ago there was a car recovered from a lake not that far from me and the people had been missing since the late 1950s.
On January 1, 1965 two planes collided over Folsom Lake (California) and the plane that crashed and sank has never been found. Folsom Lake is man-made and their are still trees at the bottom possibly hiding the wreck.
It's a relic event from 1971. Frequently, these bureaucrats don't want to be bothered with things that aren't current and have only historical value. Plus it was an accident, not foul play. So there won't be any arrests of living people, etc. In short, they just want it to go away. They see it as a bothersome demand on manpower, resources, and of course $$$.
The NTSB is doing something about it. Anything below 100 feet requires special precautions for divers. It's not like someone can go down there in a bathing suit and bring it up. When the aircraft is lifted the coronor will handle the bodies and the state police can search the hulk for evidence before it is brought into storage by the NTSB for them to examine it and file a report of their findings which could take a few months. Basically they will disassemble the engine and all the other componets and look for causes. Before any of that takes place they will closely inspect the repair and maintenance logs for that plane and interview everyone who ever did any work on it.
Dang. I was fishing in that area with my Uncle, like 30 years ago and i snagged bottom and absolutely could not free the lure. My uncle screamed at me "How do you snag bottom in 150' of water???" I bet that lure is hooked on that plane.

No reason for this anybody with any interest at all should have found this a long time ago but that’s the way America works if it ain’t easy there not going after it that’s their attitude
You're making assumptions, based on nothing. They *did* search, but weren't even certain if it had crashed in the lake, at minimum they had also searched in the mountains due to apparent reports of low planes there that day. Crashing into a mountain may have also seemed more likely as it crashed at night in stormy weather with snow. They seemed to have put in a fairly significant search considering it was a private plane/flight, with relatively few(5) people onboard. Even the guy that eventually found it said “There’ve been so many searches, and they’ve all been unsuccessful” eg: In the summer of 2014, when renewed efforts launched using sonar and underwater robots, there were still no breakthroughs. However, Lindner said some curious shapes were spotted on the lake bottom. "So much of it looks like an airplane or airplane parts, but once we send a camera down, we find out it's logs or rocks or something like that," Lindner said. They finally found it now with a new, higher resolution sonar scan, when investigating an anomaly in the 1997 scan, naturally neither of which were available in 1971. Not so easy to find wreckage 200 feet deep "somewhere" in a lake.
It's been underwater for decades, potentially with organic material on it, and being illuminated by who knows what colour lights. It's not surprising that it could look yellow.
Wow! Great discovery! Although the NTSB did not exist in 1971, I don't think there is any wreckage that is too old for them to investigate. Let's hope they can get answers from this one.
That is an amazing identification - just lying there waiting to be recognized… the families of those lost can finally grieve and get closure some +50 yrs later 🙏
They may have found Earhart's plane, there was a significant update a few months back. Sonar identified a plane with a tail like hers. Needs to be investigated further.

My thoughts are with family & friends of the victims, heartfelt condolences. R.I.P. This is an IAI Israel Aircraft Industries IAI-1123 / IAI-1124 Westwind.

Built like a fighter. Sad to hear.

They were describing the striping on the aircraft. I was confused at first too, but then got a good look at the livery. Black/red/black stripe on white fuselage.
I am a bit confused, you can't get color images of paint etc from a sonar, no matter how high resolution. It looks like they had a camera down there (ROV prob)

Is it just me or does it seam like the State police and the NTSB don’t want anything to do about this?
Agree.
200ft down, thats going to cost a lot of money to visit, much less recover. They are probably hoping it will be forgotten again.
