Echoes from the Past

This episode got one thing right. Charles & Di did get divorced but a few years after it is represented here.

Hawke meets a mercenary who claims to have information regarding his brother Saint John. Alarm bells should had rung as the mercenary did not want any money. As soon as Hawke takes off his helicopter, it crashes but Hawke miraculously survives.

When Hawke comes round in hospital he finds out that he has been in a coma for almost a year. He is told that Archangel and Santini died in a rescue attempt at a Vietnamese POW camp, but Saint John was found alive and he comes to see him.

It all turns out to be an elaborate plot from a foreign power to find the whereabouts of Airwolf now that Hawke's brother is found.

It is a rather outlandish episode but enjoyable hokum as to whether the drugged up Hawke will figure out the charade.

It is bemusing why the bad guys needed to use a real hospital to keep Hawke in a special floor.
