NEW YORK—Officials on Sunday released the name of a pilot who died in a skydiving flight after her passengers jumped from the aircraft near the Niagara Falls.
Melanie Georger, 26, was the only person on board when the single-engine Cessna crashed Saturday, the Niagara Country Sheriff’s Office said in a statement. Ms. Georger, of Towanda, New York, was working to become a commercial pilot, her father said Saturday in a statement on Facebook.
