The flying Airwolf helicopter was actually a Bell 222, sometimes unofficially called a Bell 222A, whose serial number was 47085. During filming of the series, the helicopter was owned by Peter J. McKernan Sr.'s JetCopters Inc. of Van Nuys, CA. The helicopter was eventually sold after the show ended and became an ambulance helicopter in Germany, where it crashed and was destroyed in a thunderstorm on June 6, 1992. All three crew members died.
next time u in cape town you can take in a trip around the peninsula in a genuine huey. theres one here that offers tours in themtheqs wrote:Hi there,
Pine, that is a Bell 430, same design as the 230 but with the obvious 4 bladed rotor! Beautifull aircraft, not many come close to the look of this chopper!
My favourite is the Bell 212, "Huey" as they called it! I think there is one at Rand as well, my buddy went for a flip in it!
Cheers

I do I do I do! Circa 1984? I saw it at Cresta Centre, but the lack of missles and machine guns plus the Checkers stickers spoiled the momentbuggyfan wrote:who still remembers this !airwolf's visit to south africa in the 80',early 90'turned out this was a local copy and not the genuine lady
