TRK9 I think you've missed the point.

Sorry, I probably shouldn't have been so cryptic about it. There's a conspiracy theory that the UN has mysterious black helicopters that they fly around the world in doing all sorts of clandestine misdeeds. Mostly a theory perpetrated by people who are very suspicious of the UN.
Didn't mean to drag this thread off-topic, just being goofy.

The UN doesn't do misdeeds! It doesn't have to bother with the CIA milling about, it can leave that sort of thing to them.
Maybe Devon invented the black helicopters and they've all got their MBS and things, that's that why he went to America... (sorry, it's been a very long day at work)

Do the black helipcopters have Front Scanners too?
Hey! THat reminds me, what was the name of that show about the hi-tech helicopter that was on about the same time as Knight Rider. (It was another one of those "Knight Rider inspired" shows)?

Stringfellow Hawk was it, and an improbable old girl and a relatively independent girl. She was one of the few independents of that era. They made a sequel too, with Thingie Van Dyke, Dick Van Dyke's son. I have to admit I rather liked it, it was glossier, and less preachy.
That said I love Airwolf. I've always wanted to fly that gorgeous piece of machinery, and I confess to humming the tune at every opportunity. They rarely show it on TV in the UK. It's sneaked on around 2 in the morning on the odd occasion, but I fear I may never see it again.
I really don't want to do my essay............ must get off line and work... must get off line and... Nah, this more fun.

I meant old guy, not old girl. Blame my computer, it's going mad and plotting something...
