- E1 Shadow of the Hawke (1)Next upJan 22, 1984 · 48 min · ★ 6.8
Synopsis
While demonstrating the capabilities of the new prototype supercopter codenamed 'Airwolf', Dr. Charles Moffet goes rogue, steals the chopper and kills almost all of the observers. At least one man -- Michael Coldsmith Briggs III survives. Briggs, codenamed 'Archangel' is the head of a covert organization called 'The Firm' and Archangel calls upon the one man in the world he knows that can retrieve the copter. The problem is Stringfellow Hawke is not only a loner, but a recluse as well. The amount of money the Firm is willing to pay for Airwolf's recovery is irrelevant. Hawke wants just one thing - the safe return of his brother, Saint John, who was captured during the Vietnam war and is evidently a POW.

I remember watching it when I was little, it was Knight Rider only with a helicopter that had a lot less personality than Kurt did. And it was like Riptide and MacGyver with less personality. However it was still a lot of fun for a little boy.
