When Sylvester Levay left Airwolf in the second season, the show turned to crap. It took a few episodes, but the Lady took a dive, and stayed down.
Was it a co-incidence? Or did Levay see the writing on the wall?
Oh well, I definitely ain't getting season three...

Moffit's Ghost was great Chrisisall

Sylvester Levay only left for two episodes at the start of the season: 'Sweet Britches' and 'Firestorm'. The premiere especially produced a brilliant rocked-up theme by Ian Freebairn-Smith.

So you don't like Udi Harpaz' work on say, 'Dambreakers' (when he took over until 'Crossover' in the 3rd Season) and 'Short Walk to Freedom' at the end of the 2nd Season?

What about Udi's work on 'Fortune Teller' and especially the superb 'Airwolf II'? Those were fantastic orchestral suites.

Remember, Levay came back after this for most of the 3rd Season so your timeline is incorrect.

You must mean most of the second season...

Chris, were you one of the lucky few who managed to get hold of a copy of the limited-edition Airwolf soundtrack CD?

You can make quite a profit with it on eBay!

But you'll be able to download it soon!

I was into soundtracks OUAT, but now I enjoy them more during the movie/TV show. Only soundtrack I bought in the last few years is Firefly, but that's, you know- FIREFLY!

But I DO have an Airwolf model kit (put together and painted), and two ERTL diecasts.

Just a big kid Chrisisall

That's actually incorrect, Udi Harpaz did all the episodic music from 'OUT OF THE SKY' in the 2nd Season to 'KINGDOM COME' in the 3rd Season. I take it you got that list form iMDb Chris?

Yes, those new graphics they have are fantastic. I especially love the 3D navigation buttons which look like they've come directly from the back section where Ernest Borgnine sat, sounds and everything.

I wonder if the Airwolf Themes people will do an animated version of that iPod silhouette graphic?

Yep. And I have since found out Levay came back for many 3rd season eps.
