Brown hair, green eyes. Information on the case from local sources, may or may not be correct : Megan was last seen in Cleveland, Ohio on December 29, 2016. She boarded a private Cessna Citation 525 plane at Burke Lakefront Airport with her father, Brian Casey, and Brian's friends, John Thomas Fleming and Suzanne Fleming, and their two children, John Robert "Jack" Fleming and Andrew Fleming. John, an experienced pilot, was flying. The group had attended a Cleveland Cavaliers game and was on their way home. Photographs of John, Jack and Brian are posted with this case summary. The last radar contact with the plane was two miles from the Burke Lakefront Airport; it was headed to the Ohio State University airport in Columbus. Only three minutes after takeoff, the plane disappeared from radar and crashed into Lake Erie. A subsequent investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board determined "pilot spatial disorientation" and pilot fatigue were the probable causes of the accident. The bodies of Suzanne and Andrew Fleming and Megan Casey were not recovered. They are presumed to have died in the crash. Megan graduated from Olentangy Liberty High School in Cleveland and was a freshman nursing student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison at the time of her death.
