rpcm ◊ 2007-08-10 22:23	Indeed, a fantastic Raleigh Chopper MkII.
stronghold ◊ 2007-08-12 04:20	in eps 3.07 Sunbar wrote It does appear to have a similar construction to a 1937 Coles EMA mobile crane first used by the British Army and Royal Air Force. The cab on 'The Professionals' crane is lower but larger and the stronger jib may suggest it has a larger lifting capacity than 2 tons for the Coles ERA Mk I. However the Coles ERA crane is not able to be driven but has a tow bar for moving from site to site. I therefore think this is similar (possibly a post-war development circa 1949) and was also towed. edit...The machine was developed into Mk II, III, V, VI, and VII versions followed with increasing capacities up to the 6 ton Mk VII machine. During 1939 60 were built and a further 120 ordered mounted on a Thorneycroft truck chassis. Therefore the listing should probably be in the "comments" area for the movie/programme itself rather than listed separately. crazyforcars12 wrote It looks like something used for railways. It has no tires Sunbar wrote They were actually fitted with solid tyres I believe. I am sure I remember them being used in London the 1950s and 1960s lowering sections of large drainage pipes into position straddling the open trench in the road. The wheel profile is wrong for rail use. As I said probably should be in the "comments" area for the movie/programme itself. Not a vehicle that can be 'driven' as any form of transport. -- Last edit: 2007-08-12 04:24:22

Andypilot333 ◊ 2008-06-30 17:40	To stronghold 24.10.2007.................... The white aeroplane is a Fairchild-Swearingen Merlin III B. Identifiable by the fact it has four-bladed propellers (Merlin II and early III's had 3-bladers) and the registration marking G-IIIB ! to stronghold 29.10.2007................. The blue/white aeroplane is a Piper Cherokee Six. Probably from stock footage because it has a Kenyan (5Y- ) registration marking. The airliner with vans around it is a McDonnell Douglas DC-8. The airliner in the middle is obviously a Boeing 747-200.
stronghold ◊ 2008-07-21 10:01	I'm guessing there was a promotion on for Watches in episode 4.07, as the storyline (and camera!) spend alot of time lingering on close up's of the flashy time pieces they're wearing. Bodie's watch is damaged in a fight, so he's presented with a new watch at the end of this episode Helicopters (also from eps. 4.07) + a circa 1980 Police interceptor -- Last edit: 2008-07-21 10:18:31
