How KITT got back down in "A Good Knights Work"
I am still puzzled as to how KITT actually got back down from the room in that high rise appartment/office block that he turbo boosted into?
You'd have thought the producers could have explained that one!

I can just see April down there directing people before KITT plops out the window.
April:"Nothing to see here folks, move along. Never mind the black Trans Am (D'oh, forgot, season 2), the black T-top plumiting to the ground...nothing to see."

Just when was that parachutte option added? I think they mentioned it being a recent addition in Goliath Returns. But, did it stay?
For all we know, KITT winched himself down. (I don't believe there ever was any official data on how long either of KITT's winch cables were.)
I suppose just driving out is a very unique option. But, KITT's fear of flight would probably keep that from happening. (KITT does mention the likelyhood of surviving the drive off that cliff in another episode. Though, I don't think he meant as in "totally undamaged". Just "survive" the impact.)

KITT falling from a 4th-floor apartment would be similar to him landing after a turbo boost; I don't think he'd be damaged. (as long as he landed on his wheels on not just plopped down on his rear bumper.) The biggest problem would be clearing the sidewalk below: "Excuse me 'mam, but I don't think you want to stand there. A talking car might fall on your head."
To make it more of a controlled landing, I think they would have just brought a small crane in. KITT would have complained about the indignity of it all.

Yeah like for instants in the S2 ep, Speed Demons, April adds a 4x4 mode for Kitt, High-Traction Dropdowns. But, in S4 in Hills Of Fire Bonnie has to add a 4x4 mode for Kitt to get over that dirt hill and they were Traction Spikes.jup wrote:Which all comes full circle to that deal where Bonnie hated all the things that April did to her lifetime achievement. (AKA: KITT) And, probably ripped everything out...remaking what few things she liked.
So either April took them out after the mission or when Bonnie was back they were still there and she took them out.

#1, KITT landed on the roof. i saw nowhere he landed IN the apartment building. #2, there wasnt much space between the parking garage and the apartment building so not much of a turbo boost was needed to clear it. of course the helicopter and crane ideas are perfectly logical, im sure he wouldve preffered a turbo boost so he could get down so much faster.
