A Tonawanda-native, Georger was training to become commercial pilot for an airline company, her father Paul wrote on Facebook.
"My beloved daughter, my best friend and one of the two lights of my life passed away suddenly today. Melanie was a pilot, on the cusp of realizing her dream to fly for the airlines. She was doing what she loved, flying for a local skydiving company, when her plane crashed," Paul wrote."
Paul added that his daughter was flying back to pick another load of skydivers when the plane crashed and said he is experiencing the worst week of his life.
"My life is much darker today and will remain so for a long time. To my tweety pie, my girlie, my beloved and my heart, I’m already looking forward to the day that we reunite and I will have a huge hole in my heart and a never ending ache until then," he added.
