Blue Thunder

LAUNCHED SIMULTANEOUSLY with AIRWOLF, this had the back up of a “major motion picture” as origin, though eponymous chopper was insufficiently 1980s in appearance to beat the cooler ‘Wolf. JAMES FARENTINO in the “cock”, co-pilot was DANA “WAYNE’S WORLD” CARVEY.

    Who were those two guys driving the jeep that followed the helicopter around? Was one of them Kareem Abdul-Jabbar?

    One of the guys in the jeep was Bubba “Hightower” Smith and the other guy was the wonderfully named Dick Butkis (not sure on exact spelling).
