OT : Blue Thunder TV Series...

[Bob Roberts]

As part of my on going hobby, I was wondering if anyone had the
original TV Series recorded anywhere on VHS for my archiving project -
especially in light of the fact that Columbia House will NOT be
publishing a DVD set... :(

Contact me at virtual_bob at hotmail dot com!

TIA

The TV series sucked so bad, no wonder you cant find it.
I can still watch the movie over and over.

Dana Carvey, Bubba Smith and Dick Butkus!!! LOL!!! Who played the Roy
Scheider part? Was it James Farentino?

Blue Thunder and AirWolf Were both based on a real aircraft if my memory
serves built by Lockheed in the 60's or 70's it was a 2 seater short winged
battle chopper.
The AH-56 Cheyenne it was a compound helicopter designed for the U.S. Army
55ft long 27ft across the wings with a 50ft diameter main rotor and to cap
it of it had 2 tail rotors.
One conventional anti-torque rotor and one pusher propeller.
The engine was a 3,435 shp General Electric T64-GE-16turboshaft.
if it had been perfected it would have been able to take on planes i.e. it's
top speed was supposed to have been 253 miles per hour.

I know I was talking about the concept of a super chopper capable of high
speeds and carrying a large weapons load and spying gear,
I.e a gattling gun air to air missiles and air to ground missiles plus
cameras and e.c.m for self defence The apache is not as capable today.
I happen to have 2 model kits one of Blue Thunder and one of AirWolf
(which could be made as ether a AirWolf or Bell 222 ).
