Famed aviator John Lear, 79, departs on ‘his next adventure’
Nevada aviator John Lear’s death Tuesday night has sent ripples through the worlds of aviation and conspiracy theories. Lear was widely known for his claims about UFOs and Area 51, but also for a lifetime of daring exploits in everything that could fly. George Knapp has the report.

John Lear will be missed. One of the smartest men i met, and privileged to have flown with him as my captain. He was a young man with Marilee and their 2 girls in Cairo. Until he died John and i had talked. He's the only pilot in a 14 year career as a stewardess that I maintained a friendship with. He was a great pilot, a great gentleman, and he lived his family to the end. RIP John. I was privileged to know you and enjoyed our phone calls enormously. 🙏

Who are you the CIA? Unit 8200? The man held world records as a pilot. He investigated what he thought was interesting and I guess you didn't like his conclusions.
RIP: John Lear , Art Bell ,Jim Mars, Stanton Friedmen , John Mac,.Jordan Maxwell, Lt. Philip Corso and all the others ,,,who help tell the truth ! YOU ALL WILL BE MISSED GREATLY ! 🙏

John also did a great interview with the survivors of USS Liberty, the American ship that Israel attacked in broad daylight in 1976. As the world's most expert pilot John Lear confirmed for the survivors of the attack that at the altitude the Israeli crew were flying at they could clearly see the ship was American.
I can't believe you've barely missed disclosure by 1-2 years, Lear. Miss ya, I just wish you were around so we could hear what you had to say about everything going on now. 'You may not hear in a month, a year, 5 years or 10 years, but what i'm telling you now, you'll say to yourself, my god, the son of a gun was right.' I don't know if everything you said was on mark, but I really hope to some extent we'll be saying it. R.I.P. absolute legend.

@_MindsEye_ later in life John Lear, maybe. I guess earlier John Lear maybe thought it was inevitable it'd come out. He did, after all, go on national television to attempt to bring it out and publicly talk about it. I get the sneaking suspicion he heavily leaned in the direction of getting the truth out in general. But who knows, sadly isn't around to make his case today.
Just found out he died now, never heard anything. One of the greatest Aviator's of all time.
I only knew John throughout the decades by his videos, interviews and reports. ...He was one of a kind and I'm going to miss him. ...He was really just one of the guys, but with an amazing background and a lot of important information to share.

Holy smokes, John was a total package! His Hollywood looks, amd brilliant brain! The talent, the skill! He was truly one of a kind!!!
Condolences to his family. He will be missed. I watched an interview of him years ago and appreciated his wit and extensive knowledge and ability.
I didn't know about Lear's death, very sad to hear, he was a fascinating guy, greatly missed , he said at the airforce academy they describe 3 foot tall aliens with large slanted rap around eyes , exactly what the school children at the Ariel school in Zimbabwe described in 1994 , a small being with large rap around eyes , those 10 year olds could not have known what was being taught at the airforce academy, the same description.
What a legend i will always remember him saying live ur life with no envy hate or greed. Rest in peace n may his lost be met with a hurricane of love.
Fly in peace John. Your an American hero
He lived life his way and achieved many great things and lived a full life. On to the next adventure
Oh man I just found out John Lear died.. What a legend. RIP

What an incredible man rip John
What a shame. I just found out only now that he had passed. We truly lost a wonderfully brilliant mind. So many things left to say that we will never know now. I hope you enjoy your adventure sir. I love the adventure you gave us with your knowledge.
Rest in Peace - you have given us amazing information - all true
Man. I wished I got to meet him in person. I used to binge listen to his interviews on long drives.
John will always be missed ❤
Please create a museum for him with all his research to be available to the public
Stop talking about conspiracy theories. Ufology is not a conspiracy!
What a fascinating man! Loved listening to him !! 😬
RIP, John. You were absolutely right!
He holds the most flight hours in flying the SR-71 BLACKBIRD too
So sad to hear of his death. Hopefully all his collections will be put in a museum.
I had the pleasure of working John Lear in Egypt.He was a beautiful soul ❤

Have a wonderful and fulfilling journey into the “unknown”, dear Mr. Lear❤ God bless.

Just realized John had passed. Rest in peace Sir.
I hope he met the Great Pumpkin on his return home. RIP John.
One hell of a talented pilot and fine gentleman
John was a very nice person. He had a kind heart.
RIP Mr.Lear. And so, another of the ufo 'old guard' departs. And with him, many a story. People like Art Bell, Stanton Friedman and Lear (plus so many others) all gone. And, who's gonna fill their shoes? Millennials like Jeremy 'I want to weaponise your beard hair' Corbell? I think not. I like George Knapp (especially his presenting of, what was, Art Bell's show). But there are not many others. I miss the old 'rock+roll' days of ufology. And, all the characters that it spawned :) Fun times.

And today is Thursday July 13, 2023 One day in the future, like she said: Everybody will see that everything was, and is a true story covered by the powerful elites of this planet earth and some one not from the humans.

No conspiracies, never any conspiracies. It was always the absolute truth we now, can get some info about, using the FOIA, even though it has been seriously redacted with black marking pens. We expected it. The word " alleged" does not belong here. We are not sheep and we know when the wool is over our eyes.......
