I have no idea what his politics were, probably liberal but he sure could sing.

You will be recycled into newer if not greater greatness
Just as you recycled others’ lyrics into yours.

Wonder who got all that gasoline John Denver hoarded during the oil embargo many years ago.

And he had the nerve to condemn others for filling their car tanks.

Look for a long-eze that doesn’t have enough fuel.

The bust will be in the pilot seat.

He flew his into mother gaia due to not loading enough fuel.
Engine cuts out, and its unpowered characteristics are decidedly unpleasant.

When John Denver crashed his experimental plane he was flying into a mountainside ..the last thing that went though his mind was .....wait for it....

The propeller.....

As a gruesome side note.... His plane slid down the mountain into a lake and when they recovered his body....parts of it had been eaten by birds and fish....

Heck of a way to die....

Don’t know the glide rat offhand, but she doesn’t like you fumbling around for anything in a loss of power scenario.
Your attention comes off maintaining a good clean course, and stuff happens, rapidly.
As JD found out.
His fuel selector was stiff, misplaced, and he rudder dove into the dirt.

Three things he could have done different: proper fuel selector placement, proper fuel selector, cart enough fuel.

My missus liked him.
I found him to be annoying and narcolepsy inducing.
