Its a shame to be honest.

I had a read up last night.

Used to love Airwolf as a kid. And now i know whilst i was sat watching in awe as the heroes of the show and the iconic heli beat the baddies, one of them was possibly off their heads on drink and drugs.

Its a wonder hes still alive.

 

Very sad

The helicopter used for filming came to a sad end too. 

While operating as an air ambulance the helicopter crashed in fog on June 6, 1992, killing all three of its occupants.[
