I've been to the museum a couple of times whilst visiting the Lake District. I don't know if it's because I'm grown-up now, but the motorbike looks small in real life...

Yep, they've got KITT and the A-Team van, too!

No chance of Airwolf though, I'm afraid. It was sold to a German Air-Ambulance crew and crashed with the loss of all hands... :-(

I enjoyed Barry Van Dyke's performance during Airwolf's fourth series... but the show's budget had run out and it was painfully obvious that all the aerial shots were recycled footage, and you only ever saw new footage of Airwolf when it was sat stationary on the ground. I suspect it was just a mock-up of the real helicopter!

Airwolf. it's got the advantage of speed and having air-to-air missiles.

Unless Blue Thunder was parked in front of a BBQ shack!
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Yeah he was the pilot in the film. Can anyone remember if he was the pilot in the TV version? I remember "High Tower" was in it driving rolling thunder.

Rolling Thunder?

Airwolf outclasses Blue Thunder in every which way.

Except for ugly.

It was the ground control van, it looked like the standard SWAT van used in all the programmes at that time.

let's face it, Airwolf'd win against anything except the Transformers just because Strigfellow Hawk's at the controls and he's a bad mutha-fucka.
