Airwolf Will Always Be Number One The Lady Will Never Be Forgotten
Airwolf was one of those rare television gems which was shrouded in as much mystique in production as portrayed on screen. There wasn't a lot of PR for the show. It just, "was".
Sincerely, thank you for this!
It brings back a lot of very fond memories!
This area is called the Superstition Mountains - shrouded in mystery before Donald Belisario (and Steve Cannell) discovered this location - it was used in "Renegade" as well.
Definitely
It's always stayed in my mind since being a kid watching it religiously
For some of us it just had a certain something about it
@@PGHammer21A
Some of Director John Ford's most iconic Westerns (films) were shot in Monument Valley. Some of those films starred John Wayne.
@@PGHammer21AThe Superstition Mountains are more than 250 miles from Monument Valley.
So many angles they could have gone with this show! Truly was sad when it went off air and the Lady's ending in real life.
I'm going to post this and it will be the only warning. I have banned several people because the only comment they had to make was about my mask usage.
1. The Navajo Nation has or had a mask mandate in effect at the time this was filmed. Because I was with a tour group I was required to wear a mask and I had no intention on continuously taking off and putting my mask during filming for the few trifling people who troll RUclips.
2. In the video I mentioned there were high winds that day, this created multiple sand storms. The mask came in very handy for avoiding sand in the mouth, it made sense to keep the mask ready as these storms would appear quickly.
If you watched this video and your only takeaway was my mask then keep scrolling. If you comment about my mask I will ban you from my channel, it's that simple!
Wow!!! This was really great to see the actual filming locations. I Really want to say thanks for sharing this with the Airwolf fans out here in you tube land.The distance from L.A.really makes me appreciate the time it must have taken the film crew to get there and then to get the shots that they used .The actual inside of the lair cave is really amazing to see.👍👍
Thanks Bob! Glad you enjoyed it!
This is so cool! Airwolf was such a good show and still is today. Thanks for showing us the inside scoop of it.
Airwolf was the greatest television show of the 80s and had the greatest actors and actresses, the likes of Jan Micheal Vincent and Ernest Borgnine and Alex Cord.They were the ones that made the show the greatest on earth 🌍.
Yes Air Wolf 🐺 Was A Great TV Show
This took a lot of searching and attention to details, spectacular work, sir! Thank you doesn't go far enough and for us Airwolf fans, this is PLATINUM!
Airwolf just never gets old to me!
MARS industries is building and selling a well detailed 1/18th scale 29” long Airwolf toy,can’t wait for it to be delivered (already for pre order)!
Hello have you got the chopper ?
Thank you! I loved watching the show as a kid, but since I live in Europe I hardly ever got any background information. I have visited Monument Valley and suspected that I saw some locations where they filmed Airwolf- it’s nice to have it confirmed.
God bless you for making this awesome video. Airwolf was my favourite tv show as a kid and to see these locations is so damn cool. Thank you sir
Good to know about the Locations, Airwolf was one of the coolest shows in the 80's in my opinion, good to dream and take a walk down memory lane.
Do not forget that John Wayne did a lot of his western movies & his ranch is up in that area of Az. as well.
Thank you for sharing your Airwolf tour. It's very nostalgic. This brings back my childhood memories of the tv series. Your video is amazing!
That was great! We stayed overnight in Monument Valley in an AirBnB of all places which was quite the experience. Never managed to get to Hidden Arch as we had small kids with us so that was cool to see what it looked like. The Native American lady who hosted us told us about the model too. Was definitely a bucket list trip for my young Airwolf self. Thanks!
"How far down does it go?" "I don't know. I never hovered into it before."
Thanks for making and posting this to share with us! I've got a little zip-lock baggie of Monument Valley sand that was a perk for subscribing to a fan-based magazine called The Wolf's Lair. It'd be cool to see it in person one day, but this video will have to fill the void until then, lol. The time/distance information made me chuckle. I knew it had to be more than "about an hour" from the "Hollywood and/or String's cabin" area, lol.
That is some fine red sand I'll tell you, can be difficult to walk on at times! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Awesome video! Thank you very much for showing us this mystical place for Airwolf fans. For me one of the best series in history that is already 38 years old. Greetings from Argentina!
A mis 35 años,aun veo la serie..es una cosa maravillosa.
Saludos desde cordoba capital
Awesome video. I now have a deeper appreciation of the skill and detail that went into filming Airwolf. It rises to the level of feature film photography of that era. Thanks.
very cool. Thank you for taking the time and effort to travel out there and film!
It’s too bad the Airwolf helicopter got destroyed.
I saw a 222 with the Red Wolf paint job about 2 years ago at EAA.
It's not destroyed it currently serves as a private medical team helo
It's well known, and documented, that the Bell heilo that was Airwolf crashed, do a little searching on Google and you will find the news article. Same for the Redwolf Bell, but that takes a bit more of a deep dive research.
I greatly appreciate your work sir! This is definitely on my bucket list!
Thank you for making this. One of the things I loved most about the show was the scenery. Keep up making vids like this please.
Great video. Thanks for taking us with you on that very special trip!
Wow! that's a great video. Thank you. I knew the lair had to be filmed somewhere around there but never knew exactly where. My cousin used to be a truck driver and actually saw them filming Airwolf briefly when he was driving. I remember him telling me about it during a holiday get together way back then
Amazing video. Thanks for taking the time to share all of this!
That was awesome bud. I loved air wolf, still do. Every time I hear the music my air keyboard comes out and I play along! Thank you so much.
Beautiful. Thank you Will.
I always watched the show in the 80s on a small tv.
Last year I got dvd box set and watched it on my big flat screen.
For the first time I got to see the 2nd season premier which had the improved Lair take off/interior shots.
I was blown away that I saw that their was Anazai cliff dwellings inside the lair that I couldn’t see on my old tv. It was a great matte painting that still holds up today.
Great video! Thanks for sharing this! I have always loved this area since I grew up watching westerns.
Absolutely fantastic!!
Long live the lady She is number one and always will be number 1 She will live in my memory For a Lifetime
Thank you very much for your video and work! I was searching material about this area and airwolf since a very long time and you are the first person going directly to the places including being inside the arch and the helicopter starting zone. Greetings from Poland
Thanks for this video. Many memories! Very cool to see!
Thank you so much for sharing this !!!
Hi Will, that was a very enjoyable video ! Thanks for the shout-out at the end, too !
Had to give you recognition for the wealth of information you are cultivating! Awesome work your doing with the Guidebook!
WOW...that was COOL to see. As an avid fan of Airwolf, I couldn't have been more excited to actually see the filming locations. Nice work my friend. Thanks
What gorgeous scenery!! Seeing the locations where Airwolf was shot makes me happy, thank you. I had no idea that those three formations were called "the Three Sisters," but it is good to know.
Awesome video very cool to see all of this thanks
Heeeeyyyyy that's so great to see the real places in monument Valley :) thank you so much for that nice vid! I really loved the Airwolf series back in the 90s, and during the lockdown I got myself the whole DVD stuff and watched it several times ;) still love it!
Thank you for your time and filming this awesome video. I always wondered exactly where the layer was. Valley of the gods is all came up with lots of searching on the internet. I am quite impressed that the layer wasn't a chimney style like the show, but hey it's always nice to see what it looks like in real life. But the drive in entrance is spot on. Very nice I want to go visit so bad now!! Thank you for sharing this with all of the airwolf die hard fans. Every winter when things are slow I watch the entire series and it never gets old and I am 43 years old. In addition to watching the series I will add this video to it as well! I always wanted to know where red star control was also. Thanks again for your time in filming this. This is the best on airwolf!!!!! You are awesome!!!!
Wow that was fantastic.
Although the hidden arch is not really the Lair it was still mind blowing seeing the hole in the top as you went in.
Thanks for filming and sharing, great job.
Great video.
Thanks Will, that was fantastic. Didn't even realise you could visit here, I"ll definitely be looking up the tours your suggested.
Great content, thanks again from the UK.
Thanks Mike! Glad you enjoyed it! Hope you get a chance to visit!
I loved the show Airwolf and the Lady. Its a tie between Knight Rider with K.I.T.T. and Airwolf with the Lady as my all time favorite tv show. Great Video!! ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸 Thanks!
I've seen every episode several times I have that scene memorized you are right there on the spot
Amazing!!! Thanks for sharing this!!! Always wanted to visit there!!
Love your videos on Airwolf.
Thank you for posting this video. Back in the day, my dad and I would watch Airwolf every week together, and to see the exterior location where The Lady was based was fascinating!
Matt, same here! One of the few fond memories I have with my father is watching this show! I'm looking forward to seeing and sharing some of the other filming locations in the future!
Interesting place, great show of the 80s, most of the cast are gone now: Hawke, Santini, Archangel even the Airwolf helicopter but apparently the Santini Air Jetranger was still around in 2016 and was still painted in the Santini Air colours! 🇺🇸
There is a second Airwolf at the Compton, CA airport, but it needs restoring.
@@ronaldmorris3197Sadly it's not the real one but a replica. The hero aircraft was sold off to Germany after the show finished and later whilst working as an air ambulance was written off when it crashed in bad weather killing all onboard.
@Ronald Morris I've already posted a video visiting that Airwolf replica in Compton. It was built by Steven Stull.
Great insight to the show but amazing location and scenery, many thanks.
Awesome! Many thanks from germany (60km away from the last Airwolf flight in north rhine westphalia near Möhnesee - rest in peace )!
I’ve always had a fascination w those locations when I used to watch as a kid…
This was great. Airwolf was my favorite show. Thanks for the toyr
Great video. You are amazing. Greetings from Poland
Love this thanks for posting. Such a great show with a short run. Right up there with A Team and Miami Vice for 80s action series
Thank you so much for filming this super fan here!!
🤗👍 THANKS FOR SHARING ALL THE DETAILS…AND ALL YOUR HARD WORK 😓 AND WE
APPRECIATE THE NATURAL BEAUTY 🤩🤩 …for many this is the best way to see it 👀😎😍😍😍
Such a stunning location, thanks for the upload 🤗
Excellent video, thanks!
I always wondered about the locations, thanks so much for posting this
Great video and thanks for information.
Great show Great times I miss it
Nice video. Remember when i was a kid and this was one of my favorite tv show. I was so young that i always wanted to visit the place to try and find airwolf.. :D
That was an awesome show!🙂👍
Awesome job thank you
Dude! Thank you so much!! This was awesome.
Thanks for doing this. I loved it!
Instant follow.
Excellent video. Thanx for the information with regard to staying in the valley and choosing a guide.
Wow thank you iam a big fan of the show I have the entire series on dvd . Thank you 🙏 iam Juan
Oh damn!
So I was a kid when I saw the show. Microsoft Flight Simulator just added the Bell 222b (it has an Airwolf paint job but it's missing some details due to copyright I'm sure).
The first thing I did was go to Monument Valley and put on the Airwolf music and take off.
I didn't consciousnessly know this was Airwolf's home. It just seemed right.
The flight scenes on the show were incredible. I loved Dominic, he reminded me of my grandpa.
Wow! Great video, always been a Airwolf fan. This is very informative and well done. Thanks for posting this.
Awesome. Thank You for this video from a long time Airwolf fan in New Zealand.
Fantastic buddy, thank you.
As a huge AW fan as a kid growing up in the U.K. ( Scotland) this is brilliant. Could have done with a few more stills from the show, it must be allowed on utube as watched people do a good few film locations and they are able to show a Godoy few pictures of the scenes. But none the less excellent research and execution to show us.
🫡 thank you good sir! I never knew! Always thought it was in southwestern california! Beautiful valley indeed! Thank you for sharing!
Great video. Thank-you!!
Man this is so coool!!! thank you so much for sharing this!
You have done a great job man!
Excellent well done mate spectacular
Wow - sooo cool. Iam from germany and Airwolf was my fav. Show in the 80. One day i will visit this area too. Great Video
Fantastic factual video
Gracias por el video, está muy bien realizado e impresionante estos lugares tan hermosos de Estados Unidos. Saludos desde México. 100% fan de Airwolf
I watched this video a year after you posted it. Thanks for the info. I've always known that the show lair was filmed in monument Valley not California because I'm from this area. I've been here all of my adult life and have never made it out to where you filmed. I'm a retired LEO from Navajo PD and have been assigned to assist Kayenta district numerous times. It has never led me out to that area. When I did drive that way, it was always night shift and I could not see anything anyway. I never knew the exact spots or the exact names of the filming locations until I watched your video. Thank you. I really do have to get out there sometime before it's too late.
It's a beautiful area, Ive been there a few times before but this was my first visit to those areas. Hoping to move to Arizona in a few years so I'm looking forward to another visit!
Nice place to see
Great tour thank you
My friends loved Chevy Camaro's, Me, I leaned more towards the Bell 222. 😂 Even now, almost 40 years later I have the Airwolf blueprints hanging up on my wall.
Thanks for sharing !
I love this
That was a brilliant video and brought back many memories as I used to watch airwolf when I was a kid and I always thought the lair was real but it just shows how good they are with tv magic to convince you it is real I have the series on dvd and thank you for bringing back memories and well done on a brilliant video 👍😊
wow , my childhood , this place would is definitely on my bucket list
Live right there and now imma go look for those places.
Now you need a drone to show us more views from above and all around
I hope i live long enough for a reboot.
Wow! I did Not expect that they even faked the cave sceenes 😮
Awesome
"This Briefing is from file A56/7W.....a mach 1+ attack helicopter.......has been hidden somewhere in the western United States by its test pilot String-Fellow Hawke.......finding Airwolf is your 1st priority!"
One thing about the show that made me laugh ever time was, they would be in L.A. ( Van Nuys ) and drive out there in like 20 minutes. Airwolf by far the most popular TV show vehicle/craft every created. Certainly the most popular in the Hobby World !
Nice canyon!
Thanks for the tour!
Even back in the day, the idea there was a cave or whatever out in the wilderness you could leave a expensive helicopter and have it safe from tourists…. ;)
