Trivia

add »
In the Season 1 episode "Career Day", Ponch had no trouble jumping at the chance to go up in the helicopter. Why is he so afraid now? (edit)
From CHiPs Online:
Jon and Kim live across the street from each other. It's entirely possible that their apartments have the same design. But not only do they have the same floor plan and appliances but the wallpaper, orange paper towels, potholder (near the paper towels), and microwave oven are all the same...and in the same spots. There's also a white cylinder that's on Jon's stove but is near Kim's sink.

The CHP gets to ride in a helicopter in this episode. So why don't we see it on the helicopter pad at Central in the overhead shots? (edit)
