In the early 1980’s show Airwolf, the flying Airwolf helicopter was actually a Bell 222, sometimes unofficially called a Bell 222A, whose serial number was 47085. During filming of the series the helicopter was owned by Peter J. McKernan Sr.’s JetCopters Inc. in Van Nuys, CA. The helicopter was eventually sold after the show ended and became an ambulance helicopter in Germany, where it crashed and was destroyed in a thunderstorm on June 6, 1992.

Airwolf was amazing! That’s terrible that she went down so far from home. I loved each and every episode of this great show. I can’t imagine any other aircraft than a 222 as the Lady (the one you pictured has skids?).
I found a pretty good episode guide on airwolf.tv that you ought to check out(http://series.airwolf.tv/spisodes).
She is defiantly one heck of a lady! I loved that show so so so much! I will check out the link you added too… love reading about Airwolf. Caught up on some of the old episodes on hulu and it brings back memories. There might have been Blue Thunder, but nothing like Airwolf in my book. Course I had a crush on Jan Michael Vincent too.. heh
