- Aliens at Area 51. Lear's
famous 1987 posting claiming aliens were at a vast underground
installation at Groom Lake and that they were eating humans. This
claim was made before he met Bob Lazar. (43K)
- The
O.H. Krill Papers are said to be the fiction work of John Lear
and John Grace. Confirmation needed.
- Lear
Letter about Greys describing his theory in Dec. 1987.
- Articles about Lear
- Relationships
- Opponents and Critics
- Bill Cooper.
Although once allies, they had a falling out. Unconfirmed anecnote:
Lear says
that he invented the "O.H. Krill" papers as a joke, but
was disturbed when Cooper started citing them as truth.
- Lars Hansson. Lived in Lear's house for a short time,
then wrote conspiracy treatise against him (above).
- Associates and Allies
- Bob Lazar. Knew Lazar
before Lazar's alleged employment at "Area S-4." Accompanied
Lazar is early saucer-watching expedition. Lazar says: "Well, John
Lear's a nice guy. I like him, but he does have the tendency to add
about fifteen percent color to stories, and if a story goes through him
twice, it's thirty percent, and it doesn't stop."
- Positions
- "My father disinherited me because I was critical
of the design of the LearFan. I felt there were a number of major
design flaws and I told him so. He died in 1978 and the LearFan
Corporation filed bankruptcy in 1984 with debts totaling 492 million
dollars." [source]
- Reviews
- Gene Huff: "John has no level of
skepticism, no problem solving capability, and no memory. He commands
respect because he's a pilot and he's Bill Lear's son." [source]
-- For Lear evaluations of Huff, see Gene Huff page.
- Events & Exchanges
- Gene Huff calls Lear many nasty names on alt.conspiracy.area51,
Jan/Feb 1996. [source]

- Miscellaneous
- Claims
- In his speeches, Lear says there are 80 different species of aliens
visiting earth.
- Lear is generally pessimistic about the future, suggesting that the
alien presence is sinister and that there is little chance that
the government will reveal its UFO knowledge.
- Lear appears to have backed off from the his earlier "aliens are
eating humans at Area 51" claims and now sticks fairly close to the
Lazar gospel. However, his Lazar stories tend to include more personal
interpretation than Lazar's own telling.
- Skeptic's View
- Lear endorses nearly every UFO claim as real, no matter how
loony, thus his judgement is unreliable.
- Supporter's View
- Lear does tend to go overboard at times, but his sources of
information, including Bob Lazar, are basically sound.
