Two from what I read from a first responder, this was inside the
Superdome... The dead showed up on teevee today but they were there
before that from what was said as well...

The Convention Center is not the same place as the SuperDome.

School is still out on the suicide. There are reports the person was
just trying to jump from level to level.

Mybad:

"30 people have now died in the Superdome, including one suicide and
there have been at least 2 rapes."

Let's try and keep this topic focused on getting an air drop arranged.

These people need water purification kits NOW. They have no drinkable
water. They are not being served by the rescue services. There is no
bottled water.

If I can't find someone here willing to step up and help, where should
I look for a pilot and plane?

The only thing you will get to drop is on your face on a runway with a
knee in your back. You are so far behind the curve I'm not even going
to waste time attempting to explain it to you... You get a blue star
for good intentions and definitely a zero for knowledge... Do a lot
more reading my friend.. Start with learning the meaning of what
restricted airspace is, and then look up what action you had better
take when an F16 fires a flare across your nose...

I commend your efforts, I wish I had a plane.
