Welcome to the forums, Lee!

That replica paint job seems to have fooled a few casual browsers .  It's a shame that 44C doesn't still have the Santini paint scheme.  From what I've seen, initially the stripes remained but were changed to blue.

It's used so much in filming projects that it's fun to spot 44C in behind-the-scenes footage.  There's a  brief shot if it dropping the Apollo 13 capsule into the ocean in the movie's DVD extras.

Wow, Thanks Dennis for that link, cleared alot up for me now that has.

It was kind off exiting to read but at the same time kind off sad and tearfull looking at pics of a helicopter that was once airwolf. It's a shame they converted it back really and more tearfull with the sad ending with the loss of lives.  I guess it seemed more cost effective at the time to put it into service unfortunatly no one can predict bad things to happen.

Bit off a tragic end to it really and i gues it's not something we can be proud off.  Nature is s one step ahead off us though.

But once again, thanks for clearing that up for me.  Nice to see the pics as well.. They can go with all my other many pics of the lady.

On the santini Chopper.  I have to admit, i saw that article before and pretty much guessed it was a mock up.  A nice mock up though i must say.

Thanks Wendigo for clearing that up.

Thanks to Wolfman, i never realized it was used in other scenes very interesting.  May have to buy that dvd now just to see the clip off it.

I  suppose it's just like the Redwolf which i remember was used in an episode of the A-Team with out the red nose, but soon as i saw that i recognised it straight away.

Thanks very much all.  Much appreciated.

Dennis,
The paint job got ya! It's hard to fool me with aircraft. I know most of the N # of the aircraft from the show. I've tracked most of the choppers. The Hughes 500 used in Natural Born, Sweet Britches and many other episodes is in Ohio owned by a survey Co. It's easy to see why some people thought it was the same but the paint job is wrong too! The skids are red on the impostor the real one had white skids. Just a little F.Y.I. It's no biggie though, I just wanted to set things strait.

Sorry - it was me who posted the original link on airwolf.org, but I assumed everyone would know it wasn't the real thing.  I was more surprised someone had gone to the trouble to replicate the paint job on another 206!

That's a nice looking ship.  You can add the cockpit photo by making another post within this thread.

as promised......and will pass on the compliments to my mate!!

That's a full IFR layout in that dash.  As James Bond would say, "What a handsome craft.  Such lovely lines."

I wish I could find the pictures, but when I was a kid, we went to Universal Studios in Hollywood and just after you walked in, they had Airwolf just sitting there for all to see.  It was really cool to see it.
