Milton Menzies (Born 1933) was a man who disappeared alongside Katy Mitchell and Mary Sinclair.
Case
Katy and Mary were passengers on a single engine Cherokee 140 flying from Poplar River to Fairford First Nation. The pilot was Milton, who was a retired Air Canada pilot that regularly flew to northern Manitoba as a missionaire. At 10:30 A.M., Milton sent out two distress calls due to engine troubles; the plane was heading for the water and he was attempting to land on Reindeer Island.
Several parties carried out a massive search by air, but could not search the water due to the amount of ice. The trio was presumed dead not long after their disappearance; they likely died either from drowning or from the impact of the crash.
