Great Airwolf clips cljohnston108!

There are a few shots where those models flying are really convincing!

Yeah, I'd seen those little turbines in fixed-wing models, but never in R/C helicopters!

Yet if they made an Airwolf movie today they'd probably use CGI...

A bit bigger, and with the ERTL diecast little brother behind her.

Now that's a bigger picture :D. Awesome Chris. Is it me or are the nose sections a little different? Whatever looks totally groovey!

They are a little different. But some of it is the angle & proximity to the camera.


I believe the model is more accurate than the simpler lines of the toy though.

Loving the Airwolf pics.
There both nice models Lil Wolf and Big Wolf.

If I had lotsa money (i.e. big lottery win) I'd take helicopter lessons, buy a Bell 222 and have someone kit it all out like Airwolf.
It would be too cool for words. Pimp My Copter.
