Sicario 2 Blackhawks


Recommended Posts

As a rotorhead I liked watching sicario 2. I just wondered, where you can get 2 Blackhawks if the Pentagon isn't involved in shooting the film. Via imdb.com I found that one of the Blackhawk-Pilots is Doug Uttecht by Northwest Helicopters but do they own Blackhawks too?

In this picture from the set (LINK) the registration reads N0703DF

Most of the aircraft are CGI.  All the aircraft on the tarmac were CGI. 

 

Actual shot.

CGI/Visual Effects (VFX) aircraft added.

My guess is they had the one civilian Sikorsky S-70 and the other is CGI.  You really only see one helo at a time in close up shots anyways.

camera bird looks like an A-star to me.  

Your eye is finely tuned.  It's an A-Star fo-sho.   Back to the original question....I don't know who owns those particular birds, but, there are TONS of UH-60A's on the market.  Some SH-60's as well.  Saw a FB post a couple weeks ago where there was a hangar full.  

I also ran across an outfit from FL that was in AL doing contract firefighting work with their UH-60A.  It was white and had uprated engines.  Really cool bambi bucket too.  I have those pics somewhere.....
