A bad episode even by Airwolf's low standards.

"Terrible"

By pk20220, Jun 22, 2007

Airwolf was my favorite show as a kid and I was eager to rewatch this specific episode as it was my favorite. Flight #093 seemed so surreal to me back then. I remembered as an eight year old kid, putting a mike near the speaker of our TV and recording this particular episode on audio-cassette (we didn't have a VCR). However, upon seeing Flight 93 for the first time in twenty-some years, I was shocked at the cheesy quality of it. All I basically saw was bad directing, terrible overacting, bad dialogue, bad humor, and an ending we've seen a thousand times. To see the stranded passengers celebrate like drunken sailors when they haven't even been rescued yet was ridiculous. I should have known when I saw Bernard Kowalski's credits coming up. He's the same guy who directed several terrible episodes of Knight Rider. To me, almost all the Airwolf episodes are unwatchable today, but this is bad even by their low standards.moreless

Another good episode. This time, we got to see some personal life of Caitlin - that she's single, her mother wants her married, and she has a sister who now is married.

Good substory acting by the VP's assistant who expresses her romantic emotions for the VP.

As for using Airwolf for public use, it seems to have deviated away from its original intent of being a hush-hush secret mission only. It was casted in public tv as part of a news conference (unless it may have been a different helicopter but looked too similar to be another).moreless

TRIVIA (5)
ADD TRIVIA
- How would the perpetrators on the boat get a newspaper with the headlines of the hijacking demand? The plane would have had to be down for at least a day before that could happen, and they'd have to go ashore to get the paper.
  EDIT SHARE
- Typical Boeing 747 flights are international. It would not be cost effective to fly from CA to TX in a plane of this size.
  EDIT SHARE
- What body of water is there between Los Angeles and Dallas where the plane crashed? 114 W Longitude and 27 N Latitude, where they found the plane underwater, is actually on the southern part of the Baja peninsula near Playa Oceano Pacifico. Kind of out of the way for a flight to Texas.
  EDIT SHARE
- When String and Dom are in the hurricane getting readings, it is quite interesting that in close-ups, they show the water chruning, yet shots with Airwolf flying, the water is calm and peaceful, with the sun reflecting on it.
  EDIT SHARE
- GOOF: Funny how water was leaking into the plane at quite a fast pace and yet it was never more then ankle deep after all those hours, and also there was still plenty of air to breath.

- Dom: (to String) Did I ever tell you how they invented break dancing? Some kid was trying to steal a hubcap off a moving car.
