Archangel's Chopper also seen in Airwolf. Sometimes a standard length JetRanger is shown instead.
Seen prominently in 1.04.
Also seen in 1.03.
In 1.11 another LongRanger is seen, or is it just the Archangel chopper sporting another elaborate paint job? It is used by D.G Bogarde, a government official desperate to take Airwolf back from Hawke.
Unidentified Aircraft
As Russian enemy aircraft described as MiG 23s in 1.04.
Also seen in 1.02. The stock footage used is mostly the same between the two episodes. Note the error in the screen describing the aircraft as a MiG 23S 'Flogger-B'... the 23S was referred to as 'Flogger-A'.
Unidentified Aircraft
Also from 1.04 and meant to be a MiG 23 but I think it is a different type of plane from above.
Unidentified Aircraft
This refueling rig appears twice in the episode as Airwolf refuels to get to Russia. The pilot and co-pilot speculate as to what the aircraft they are refueling is. At the end and to resolve a bet they ask another member of crew to check. When he tells them it is a helicopter they question his sanity.
Boeing-Stearman A75N1 (PT17)
Our first Stearman is seen in 1.06 'Echoes from the Past' flown by Peter MacGregor-Moore, a mercenary Hawke knows, who claims to have information on his long missing brother, Saint John.
Another is seen in episode 1.11 'To Snare a Wolf'. It is used by Toni Donatelli, a pilot who wants to get a job at Santini Air and is trying to impress Dom.
Registration N68405; Serial 75-7759.
Lockheed C-130 Hercules
From 1.06 when a group of mercenaries kidnap Hawke and take Airwolf. The Hercules is used to transport them to Libya.
Earlier on in the series another is seen in the background at a military base in 1.02.
Unidentified Aircraft
From 'Echoes of the Past': This is supposed to be a Libyan Airforce "MiGs" which is escorting the Hercules transporting Airwolf. When Airwolf escapes from the Hercules' cargohold they pursue and Airwolf blows it out of the sky.
Unidentified Aircraft
The second of the two "MiG" escort fighter jets that pursue Airwolf. It is obviously a different plane from the one above.
McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II
From 1.07, these American fighter aircraft are owned by arms dealer Hans Daubert and he sends them to chase after Airwolf.
Unidentified Aircraft
F-15?
Also from 'Fight Like a Dove' this jet is used by Daubert to demonstrate a missile system he wishes to sell. He has promised the pilot $1million if he succeeds in beating the four missiles. The pilot successfully evades the first three missiles, unfortunately he fails to beat the final one.
Unidentified Aircraft
Mystere IV?
From 1.08 'Mad Over Miami'
Vought F4U Corsair
In 1.09 these rather old aircraft are used by the North Limbawe Air Force. They engage in a dogfight with the Hughes 369s seen in this episode.
Boeing B-52 Stratofortress
Stock footage of B-52s are shown in 1.11 'To Snare a Wolf'. In this episode String and Dom are working with the army to create a training video. The B-52s are bombing a patch of desert for this video.
Bombs away!
Douglas C-133 Cargomaster
In 1.11 String needs to hide Airwolf from US military satellites used by D.G. Bogarde to hunt for it. His hiding place is an Aircraft Bone Yard (played by the bone yard at Mojave Air and Space Port). In this bone yard we can see a couple of scrapped C-133s. They appear to be N136AB and N136AR.
Unidentified Aircraft
Another aircraft from the Bone Yard in 1.11.
The same? (seems to be in a similar position?)
Unidentified Aircraft
Again from 1.11, a further scrapped airliner in the Mojave Bone Yard.
Unidentified Aircraft
From 1.11. On our left.
Various Aircraft
The last picture from 1.11 and the first series is an aerial view of the Mohave Air and Space Port Bone Yard.
