Can you help me find this mystery?

I heard about this mystery maybe a year ago on YouTube. I don’t remember which channel or video, and I’ve tried to search my history to no avail. The details I remember are this:
Time frame approximately 1930-50. A male pilot and his girlfriend were staying at a hotel in a cold region of the US. They were having drinks and he decided he wanted to go for a midnight flight. There was an airfield by or attached to the hotel. They urged against it because of the weather but he said he wanted to anyways. He took off, the nervous girlfriend watched, he went missing. They searched for the plane up until recent times and some group thought they found the plane in water but there was no evidence of the body which confused them because of the circumstances of how the plane was found.
I remember googling their name and seeing pictures of the plane and possibly the pilot. Does this sound familiar? Can someone link what this is? I don’t know WHY but I think about this once a week and now that I can’t find it it drives me crazy.
