US Navy transport plane - missing 16 Aug 1942 - West Canada

A USN transport plane went missing over West Canada on 16 Aug 1942 while en route from Kodiak, AK via Whitehorse, BC to Seattle, WA.

Unit reportedly VR-2 with pilot Lt Cdr Jerome H. Sparboe. All crew and passengers missing since.

Icing suspected.

Who has details about the identity of this lost airplane?

Regards,
