I've been following Joseph and John's case for a while now, and something that keeps nagging at me is the logistics of the rescue operation. How thorough was the search effort, given that the crash site was so close to shore? Skagway Harbor isn't exactly the open ocean, so I'm curious why Joseph and John weren't found when other victims were located. Was there any mention of strong currents or tides at the time, or maybe underwater obstructions that could have complicated the search? If anyone has insight into how these operations are typically handled in areas like Taiya Inlet or knows of similar cases, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Always holding out hope for more information.
Has anyone looked into the weather conditions that day? It seems like the pilot might have faced some unexpected challenges. I know the region can be unpredictable, and with the flights being so reliant on visuals, a sudden change could have been critical. Does anyone have insights on the safety record of these small planes in the area? Hoping for answers soon.
Did anyone else find it odd that Joseph and John were never located, yet the others were either rescued or found deceased? The Taiya Inlet isn't that wide; it's pretty surprising given the amount of search resources deployed. The weather was reportedly calm that day, which makes it even stranger that they haven’t been found. Could currents have swept them farther out than expected, or is there something else we’re missing? Anyone familiar with the area have thoughts on how something like this could happen? Would love to hear more from locals about the inlet and any historical incidents that might shed light on this.
