It happened on July 20 when Melanie Georger, a pilot, went to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Melanie works for a skydiving company, Skydive the Falls. She was a pilot who was responsible for picking up skydivers and allowing them to jump from the airplane over Niagara Falls.<br><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"769\" src=\"https:\/\/innerstrength.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/5a-16.jpg\"><br>On this particular day, everything seemed fine when she picked up the first group. Jeffrey Walker, who is a first-time skydiver that was in that group said that it was great weather, with a low, very calm winds. He said that everyone was excited and in a good moo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Walker went on to say: \u201cI never even got nervous at the door ready to jump.\u201d<br>30 minutes after they jumped from the plane, however, the plane crashed to the ground. Georger was heading back to pick up more skydivers when the accident occurred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>911 calls began to come into the Niagara County Sheriff, saying that the plane was on fire and a bush fire had started. Georger was the only person on the plane and she died at the age of 26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Walker went on to explain: \u201cIt\u2019s just an eerie feeling that I was on that plane literally a half hour before it crashed. Why didn\u2019t it crash with us on it? Why didn\u2019t it crash with more people on it? It\u2019s surreal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gregor\u2019s father went on Facebook to share the news of his daughter\u2019s death. He wrote: \u201cFriends and family, my life as I know it ended today. My beloved daughter, my best friend and one of the two lights of my life passed away suddenly today.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also said that she was just about to realize her dream of flying for the airlines. He ended: \u201cMy life is much darker today and will remain so for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The video below talks more about Georger and the plane crash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Pilot dead after plane crash in Niagara County, sheriff confirms\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lHqicMnG3sA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/?p=38978\" title=\"\">ALSO READ&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We don\u2019t often think that the worst is going to happen when we go to work in the morning but for one woman, it would end up&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":39075,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39073"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=39073"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39073\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":49329,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39073\/revisions\/49329"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/39075"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=39073"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=39073"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=39073"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
