R/C Airwolf Helicopter
March 27, 2009
I was always a big fan of the Airwolf TV series as kid, one of my favourites in fact, that coupled with the fact I’ve always liked helicopters meant that as soon as I saw this remote controlled (R/C) Airwolf helicopter, I knew that I just have to get one for old time’s sake alone!

I had to meet up at an Elstree Aerodrome in North London for 8.30am – it meant I had to get up at around 3am – which is probably the earliest I’ve ever had to, so that was bit of a shock to the system! I was out the house and on the road by around 4am – but it would ultimately be a very worthwhile journey!
