Ironic how he wrote a song called "Leaving on a Jet Plane" 30 years before it happened.

John, I know you're reading this in heaven but your music will last forever!

@Shambolic67 Sometimes - for unknown reasons - roumors simply sprout wings and take flight!!!!! I've always liked the one where John Denver was a sniper in Vietnam and sang of childrne becasue he orphaned so many in Vietnam!!! Of course this is impossible - his eyesite was 40/400 (legally blind is most states without corrective lenses) - plus he cut 2 toes off his right foot at the age of 17 in a lawymover accident!! The US Army does not take people with only 8 toes - NEVER!!!!

@Earthlinked Internet rumours are funny things,aren't they? The sniper one is too preposterous to be offensive,but the one that galls me is the odious rumour that JD hated Jehovah's Witnesses & threw'em out.Snopes theorizes JD (or some 1 else) was going to sing the anthem & advised JWs in the audience that as they might find it offensive,it might be a good time to take a break.JD HATED bigotry,racism,& intolerence so its absurd.Alas,go to a JW site,lots of 'em HATE JD cos of this heinous LIE.

When are you coming out with another John Denver DVD? I thought you had started one with the shots of him in the 70's at the beach that you had last year.

PBS should this Dvd last night on their station and what a thrill it was to see John playing but what I didn't like was,they were asking for support to join WNED as a sponsor, We all love John Denver's music and that the way it should be. RIP In God's peace John,I will always be a fan.

Thank you for this collection

@Earthlinked I stand corrected on the "Lazy eye" subject...The FAA states you can get your ATP with a lazy eye as long as you have a waiver (SODA)..they even went as far to state that Delta has a captain that is legally blind in one eye and flies for them with a waiver!!

@Earthlinked You might notice that I stated in his Lear alone he had 1500 hours...told to me by JD himself. And he did fly his Lear himself a great deal and he preferred to do do.....even after his shows that evening...but I never saw him partake in a beer before doing the flying. Lazy eye thing I'd have to check in but I still don't buy that. I too am an ATP.

My brother has "lazy eye" (which can be orreted with glasses) and he has been an airline pilot for about 15 years!!!
Also - he rarely flew his lear jet - preferring to have a few beers after each concert (that is in his book).
And by 1986 he had 2450 flight hours - also in hsi bio - that he wrote.
It still hurts that he's gone,doesn't it?
