1938 Yosemite TWA crash

The 1938 Yosemite TWA crash was the crash and disappearance of a Transcontinental & Western Air Douglas DC-2 on March 1, 1938. During a scheduled passenger flight from San Francisco to Winslow, Arizona, TWA's interstate hub, the flight encountered severe weather and radioed their intention to land in nearby Fresno. The aircraft never arrived, and was found three months later having crashed into a mountain in Yosemite National Park.
== Flight ==
The aircraft was TWA Plane #327 AC-III, NC13789,〔(ASN Database )〕 a twin-engined Douglas Aircraft Corporation DC-2-112 piloted by Captain John Graves, a former Army Air Corps pilot who won some measure of fame in 1932 when he located and dropped food to a group of snowbound people in northern Arizona. Crew members on board were the co-pilot, First Officer C. W. Wallace, and stewardess Martha Mae Wilson.
Passengers on board included Mr. and Mrs. Walts of San Francisco, Mr. V. Krause, Jay Tracy Dirlam and Mary Louise Dirlam (brother and sister who both attended Stanford University) and Mr. M. H. Salisbury, a TWA pilot.〔
The aircraft was flying from San Francisco to Winslow which was a hub connecting TWA's transcontinental Los Angeles-New York route.〔 It departed San Francisco in good visibility, with a cloud ceiling between ,〔 and had sufficient fuel to last until midnight.〔 The accident report list the causes as "a change in wind direction and a sharp increase in velocity, unknown to the pilot, together with the pilot's confusion as to his position with reference to the Fresno Radio Range station, which combined to bring about flight over mountainous terrain, ending in a crash at near his reported cruising altitude."〔
