Voted. I can't believe nobody did Airwolf.

I auto-rotated to a rough but survivable landing and voted.

Voted. I can't believe nobody did Airwolf.

Airwolf has capabilities that no real helicopter has, like supersonic flight. So it qualifies as at least borderline SF.

I had thought about using the scene from Spider-Man: Home Coming, where Spidey jumps over the copter to use to swing around and break the glass to get into the Washington Monument. But I didn't see a good angle to use. Except the one where he flies right over it.

Five days left to get those votes in!

And no BLUE THUNDER either-----no, not the TV show's.

I thought of Blue Thunder but assumed it was futuristic enough to run afoul of the "no sci-fi" contest rule.

One day left to vote!

Looks like I win again! But since it was my contest, I'll concede to the runner-up. @the G-man, the next contest is yours.

Thanks to all who participated!

Thanks @scotpens and all who voted! I'll think up a contest in the next day or so.
