Crash pilot dies

A pilot who was injured but walked from the crash of a medical-specimen plane at Teterboro Airport last month reportedly died from his injuries yesterday.

George Maddox, 54, of Sinking Spring, Pa., was burned over 20-30 percent of his body after he and co-pilot Sanil Gopinath, 42, crash-landed on Aug. 21, according to the Asheville, NC, Citizen-Times newspaper.

Relatives of Maddox, an Asheville native, were by his side, according to a Facebook page honoring him.
