Miniature Airwolf Helicopter Lair Exit (prop)

Screen Used Airwolf Helicopter Prop Goes Under The Action Hammer For The First Time Since 1987

GENUINE HOLLYWOOD AUCTION HOUSE PHOTO OF AN AIRWOLF SCREEN USED PROP

This 2013 auction item (image above) was apparently the actual screen used model shown in the series
 "when airwolf was exiting / entering the lair" 

HOLLYWOOD AUCTION HOUSE CATALOGUE SCAN DECEMBER 21st 2013

This auction house photo (image above) also clearly shows why the nose always looked so odd

on the scene were you see it from the front/side in the landing and rising shots (image below)
 

GENUINE VIDEO STILL FROM AIRWOLF EPISODE

We are fully aware the catalogue used the wrong lair image, AS SUCH  
we posted the right photo of the right model for you in the  image above
We don't do "half measure posts" just to generate web activity from fans nitpicking  ;)

It was estimated to fetch between $4,000 - $6,000. I am unsure how much it eventually sold for.

QUOTE:

335. Miniature working Airwolf helicopter from the establishing mountain hangar shots for Airwolf. (CBS TV, 1984-1986) This is a mechanical miniature model of the famous
Airwolf helicopter that was at the center of the 80s high-tech military TV series. The actual Airwolf copter was actually a conventional Bell 222 helicopter subsidized and modified with props for the TV show. Constructed of metal, resin, plastic and wood components and measuring 7 x 21.5 in. with a 21 in. blade, from tip to tip. Expertly painted in hyper-realistic military stealth green and khaki. The model is outfitted with separate internal electric motors (powered by a 9-volt battery) allowing the main rotor to rotate slowly, while the tail rotor spins at high speed (functional). Visible in virtually every episode of the series in the establishing mountain hangar sequence. 

In production-used very good condition. $4,000 - $6,000

UN-QUOTE: 

I assume the 335 was the auctions Lot Number, obviosly not the scale ;)
