H2 oh come on it's no big deal you all new cars have little bugs on it it's

probably just a a loose water hose or something like that you know the last

time I bought a car with a bug in it I invited the salesman out for a ride we

talked the whole situation over by the time we got back I had an extended

warranty for 25 years were you lighten up Frank doesn't need you to solve his

problems do you Frank no no hey no problem no problem just give me the word

Frank they do you right or they deal with me

I'll see you guys upstairs okay guys I wish I were at Liberty to

give you more information but I'm not just believe me when I tell you that this is a matter of the utmost

importance to the federal government wal Captain bradock introduced you as agent

walge he neglected to say what agency you're with I was just wondering if that was an oversight stop playing with words

channy you weren't told because you don't need to know I'm sorry guys but you're going to have to fly blind on this one at least for a while Apex

doesn't like people who keep us in the dark oh no no everything that's being done is with their absolute sanction but

we're to believe all this Intrigue is over one stolen saber jet more secrecy

than dday because a relic of the Coran w*r gets swiped from an airst strip in The

Boondocks excuse me I'm sorry I'm late gentleman of the Blue Thunder team I'd like you to meet my associate agent Kate

Cunningham how do you do and she usually isn't late for important briefings oh

I'm afraid that's my fault if I'd let her get away with stealing my parking space she'd be on time well I'm glad you

two have met whatever the occasion because Kate is going to be the field agent in charge of this investigation

she's going to be your Shadow day and night till it's over is that right well tell me have you ever flown a

turbo powerered gunship before now that you mention it I haven't but I can hardly wait

[Music] oh having fun ain't you Cunningham yes I

am and please call me Kate you know I could have sworn Cunningham was an Irish

name my mother is Irish my dad was born in Liverpool if I was born in Liverpool

I'd have my own rock group wouldn't be flying around with mini like this oh I

love it master [Music]

if you're trying to scare me it won't work where you drive doesn't surprise me

is it true that a helicopter can do a 360° Loop not many have you ever tried

it no I have not why don't you try it now hey if you're trying to scare

me you are [Music]

good afternoon we're looking for Bill Spradley I figured you were your captain call from Los Angeles I'm Spradley oh

Frank Cheney officer Wonder field agent Cunningham well I didn't expect this much attention when it comes to stolen

airplanes usually you get kissed off not stolen fighter planes even when they're privately owned the government takes di

view you people are federal agent Cunningham here will fill you in on that won't you yes Mr Spradley we are federal

and we'd like you to tell us anything you feel might help us find your plane breaks my heart to even think

about it I spent the last 5 years of my life restoring that baby she was in mint

condition better than when she was sh**ting down migs over Korea what about the Armament except for firing pins all

the machine g*ns and cannons were operative I'm telling you we're talking about a cherry airplane here right down to the original Air Force markets how

difficult would it be to put in firing pins well with the right parts good gunsmith could have her combat ready in

less than 3 hours and if somebody wanted to activate her m*ssile system she'd be lethal enough to tie up every cop in

this state does it wash Kate what does it if

you were CIA or FBI you'd have more helicopters at your disposal than most countries have in their Air Force are

you asking me why we chose Blue Thunder I'm asking you to level with me because little bells are going off that tell me

this whole thing stinks I wish I could tell you everything but you'll have to settle for this finding the f86 is a

high level priority we chose Blue Thunder because you have more sophisticated detection equipment than

anything else that flies do plain old eyesight come under the heading of sophisticated we'll take a peek out the

starboard window folks unless I need glasses as an f86

hit it with the [Music]

[Applause]

zoom it's Fu 849 that's it that's the

[Music] one sky strike to base exactly 3 seconds

I'll tell you if you've earned your Merit bad g*n smiting Roger strike standing

[Music]

[Applause]

by any questions about the firing pins we got to get out of here Turbo

what are you running for we don't go into combat with civilians aboard jie I'm a federal agent and I'm ordering you

to turn this aircraft around excuse me but I'm a federal agent too and I don't remember you have the authority to give

me orders we can take the time to get on the radio and verify that or we can do the job we're here to do sh**t that

plane down [Music]

[Music]

what do you know B he wants to play test the missiles whatever you do take him out

[Music]

[Music] there's a malfunction in the m*ssile system they won't

fire all right we'll handle the situation a different way return to base

[Music] he had a m*ssile why didn't he fire it a lot of

things we don't know jeffo and I don't like

it look Mr wals I'm a cop I'm supposed to take orders but I do think all of us

deserve some minor clarification minor clarification first you tell me to find an f86 that comes Under The Heading of

seek then when the 886 finds US agent Cunningham here tells me to no orders me to sh**t it down that comes Under The

Heading of destroy now just so we're all in syn here are we looking for that bird

or are we supposed to sh**t it down you're looking ah and you're sh**ting look what my men want to know is just

what the hell we're doing on this Mission I'm sure they do Captain but for now that's impossible

[Music]

[Music]

want us to give you a ride home Frank oh come on you guys the engine was a little hot this morning it's going to be fine

rack we modified the m*ssile release system I don't think you have any more trouble with it that's what you said the

first time and that Chopper almost wasted me I want to try those missiles again be my guest oh and uh you can take

that Cannon out and I can take care of myself well I'm sorry but we can't guarantee the accuracy of your Armament

you haven't been able to guarantee much of anything have you let's

very tall Hunter out there somewhere it had to be a

plane most of them were dead since yesterday one guy was still alive though where is he now well he died not too

much longer after we got here he said a plane attacked them said it was sh**ting at random then it came after them uh

wait a minute uh was he able to tell you what kind of plane was it a jet yeah yeah he said it was um an f86 saber jet

Captain if I had had the fuel I could have stayed out there and made a full scale surveillance of the area I would

like to go back there with BB and ski in the van with back of fuel okay sounds good to me Frank go ahead thanks first

thing in the morning I have something else to tell you Cheney I'm having Cunningham taking off

the case what why uh I can't tell you that it's just that that we have some

supposed to go out there and find an airplane blow it out of existence right that's right

okay Frank at 0800 I want you to leave here and find that saber jet don't come

back till it's destroyed all right how much longer this isn't

something that can be hurried we have to get the sounds right we've got to be out of here in 2

hours we don't get the background sounds just right even an amateur could tell that this isn't a broadcast between an

intercept aircraft in its base if a Russian airlin is to be shot down we have to be sure the United

States gets the blame not the Soviet Union if we're not out of here in two

hours when that plane enters its Final Approach there won't be any Mission you

remember

[Music] that jet fighter plane needs a

reasonably long airst strip to land and take off either that or a long stretch of

solidly packed ground that eliminates a lot of Trin around here yeah jaffo let's start at

the point that vehicle was attacked there we can fly concentric circles from that nucleus and see if anything looks

promising make sure Bubba and ski have those coordinates I'm on the horn now jao to

Rolling I mean Wonder love to Rolling Thunder come in see jaffo it fits I do

you get used to it yeah yeah come in jaffo Bubba you got these 35° 15 minutes

north by 118° West right we have those coordinates we shouldn't be out too far

behind you rolling thunder [Music]

out hey what do you think you're doing that's my side of the truck yeah I know

why don't you keep your trash on your side of the truck this isn't a dumpster do you know what you are compulsive

that's what compulsive your little pencil goes right here on your desk and your little

notepad well that goes right here on your desk you got to learn how to relax man you get angry too easy you don't get

any enjoyment out of life what are you

doing enjoyment we're going to play a little

guessing game in what famous movie did the song Somewhere Over the Rainbow

appear the wizard of eyes wizard of what eyes the wizard of eyes say it

again eyes o z i I enjoyed that I feel a lot more

relaxed now oh I don't know Frank we've been up

here for 4 hours now and we haven't got one solid lead yet that valley

floor it's long enough to land a jet aircraft so were the last three valleys

we looked at we're still going to keep trying take a sensory reading with a ground cover see if you can read any

Impressions that might have been brushed over uh check that out

prank well well well what do you know unless the prairie dogs have been building little roadways I'd say that's

the track of a small aircraft well why don't we see where it leads why don't

[Music] we get that on the zoom jaffo

Roger Frank I think we found it [Music]

hang on we took a hit on Thea get on the horn

Rolling Thunder mayday mayday we've taking a hit we're going

down you want us to stay in help Frank no I want you to get back to the shack it shouldn't take more than now to

replace place now look they know we're on to them so either going to try to finish us off or clear out either way

step on you got it

fellas be careful huh [Music]

that's it up there let's come around from behind that Hill there where we have some protection

[Music]

okay can't you do that any f the mix on this is perfect it should be played just before the attack on The Airliner it's

almost

ready sir I spotted a vehicle approaching circle around behind the mountain get the plane airborn all set

man that weapon and stand by it yes sir we evacuate immediately

[Music]

they're getting away hit [Music]

it that g of cut us in

[Music] [Applause] pieces Bubba the blue thunder come in

Frank Blue Thunder Bubba go ahead Down Under Fire we could use some backup is

that rotor fix yet we're on our way [Music]

[Music]

go for it Frank stop firing we're Federal officers

[Music] take one more move and it's all

over ski Bubba pick up the trash down there will

you

we have the guy secured Frank either he doesn't know anything or he isn't going to talk he doesn't want to be cooperative well if they're trying to

burn these tapes they must be important to them Bubba can you give me a hand with this yeah We examined the whole area there's nobody left except the guy

who was Manning the g*n but there were the Jeeps and the planes what the hell is going on with

that plane Frank we got the head end of uh several tapes here I think you should listen to these

what in the world was that and now this control to Interceptor 4 standby

control to Interceptor 4 identified Target over and that's not all

folks intercept 4 to control we have the Target in sight

over Roger control standing by I don't get it let's try them all together shall

we

intercept 4 to control we have the Target in sight Over Control to Interceptor 4 standby Roger control

standing by control to Interceptor 4 identifi Target over intercept 4 it has

Russian marking looks like a spycraft disguised as an airliner Roger Interceptor 4 attack and

Destroy that's all the tape that was here was probably used to mix a master onto a cassette they're going to sh**t

down a Russian Jet and make it look like a deliberate act by the United States government that's right channy you

solved the riddle fortunately for us it's too late cuz within an hour a plane

of the Air National Guard will have committed an act of vicious aggression and k*lled 200 innocent Russian

citizens then the world will know what a warmongering country this really is

[Music]

well now you know why you weren't allowed to know the true nature of your mission Cheney the political aspects

were a bit delicate I don't get it are you a federal agent or you KGB both in

my hat as a federal agent it was my job to get you to find the saber Jet and destroy it before it shoots down the

Russian airliner in my hat is a KGB agent I was doing everything I could to

prevent you from accomplishing that mission but why didn't you just notify the Air Force they could have done it

for you that was considered but I had a very good argument against that possibility I convinced everybody that

there would be an international embarrassment for the US to sh**t down one of its own planes and that no one

would believe that explanation Kate what about Kate

Cunningham well she became suspicious of me she had to be eliminated you k*ll you

don't be

stupid you know I would have thought that you were a true professional that you wouldn't let emotions get in the way

of doing your job I mean if you had the same kind of commitment I have you wouldn't be affected by the elimination

of a single Pawn you're scump wal I'm going to k*ll you Cheney and if you're

lucky I won't sh**t you in the stomach where it takes hours to die like your

girlfriend I scattered the area sir there's no one

else well gentlemen now you have the opportunity

to Die For Your Country such as it

[Music] is back off this mine

[Music]

[Music]

Frank Frank you don't want to do that man

[Music]

jaffo let's go find us a saber jet this is aof flat 419 request

clearance for Final Approach B Center any Russian flights coming in on the west coast please stand

by yes I'll wait jaff I'll take notes on this I'm ready still here affirmative

right a Russian diplomatic flight where's it coming from origin was Lenin destination LAX watch's his

present position du West Thunder 300 M out thanks La Center Blue Thunder out let's get a graphic read out on the

flight path of The [Music]

Airliner okay this is the normal flight path it would end up at Los Angeles International Airport but it looks like

this Russian diplomatic flight is varying a little bit to the north continues on its present course can you

project this destination sure [Music]

can okay here we go where is that Vandenberg Air Force

Base why would a diplomatic flight head toward a military base that's bound to look very suspicous icious because the

whole thing's been set up the Pilot's orders must have been falsified in order to change course let's

go La Center this is Blue Thunder do you have any unidentified aircraft anywhere

in your offshore airspace that's a primitive Blue Thunder a fast moving small Target 35 southeast of Santa

Barbara heading 330 appears to be a military fighter type thanks

La if we take of 270 we should Intercept in approximately 90 seconds

270

[Music] Roger there he is Frank coming at 2:00
