played a reluctant bad-ass mariner who mixes it up w a local NYC street gang while he is waiting for his next ship...
pretty intense street fight scenes - at least for a 12 yr old back then...

He made life hard on himself. Died in obscurity. Very sad ending. Find the peace in eternity you failed to find in life, JMV

Somebody needs to photoshop four 222s doing the Missing Man maneuver.
I once unwittingly climbed into the original Airwolf at an open house day of the helicopter service near my hometown which it was sold to after the show, sans props of course. I remember ridiculing our local paper for thinking this was the actual name of the Bell 222. Only really found out when the aircraft crashed in a thunderstorm on a medical flight some years later, with all aboard killed.

He was also on the original Mechanic movie with Charles Bronson.
Because son, it is what you are supposed to do.

He made some movies I thought about seeing but never got around to it. One was about USMC basic training (Tribe), the other was driving around in a post-nuclear world (Damnation Alley):

This is what I always think of him for.

What a sad ending to what appears to have been a pretty incredible life.

He had some pretty good roles back in the day. He could have become a big star. He was some type of LEO, maybe a sheriff in The Return (1980). He carried a 1911 in a belt slide holster and he was pretty handy with it. RIP Jan Michael.
