Ryan plans to make a tandem parachute jump with the U.S. Army Golden Knights team.
The jump is scheduled for Friday at the Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station, where the Thunder of Niagara Airshow will run through the weekend.
The Golden Knights have been around for more than 55 years. The team is one of three authorized Department of Defense aerial demonstration teams. The U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and Navy Blue Angels are the others.
