Officials are identifying the pilot of a small plane who was killed in a crash last week off the coast of Grand Isle.

The Jefferson Parish Coroner's Office says the body of 33-year-old Jonathan George of Mississippi was recovered from the water last Thursday. The previous day, his Cessna 182 lost contact with company management during a fish-spotting trip.

The Federal Aviation Administration says the plane is believed to have crashed east of Grand Isle.

The wreckage of the plane hasn't yet been found.
