ice225 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 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 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cubs2jets Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 The registration is not valid in FAA database. First digit cannot be a 0. There are civilian versions (Sikorsky S-70) and there have been some surplus sales of UH-60A models since 2014. C2j Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HeavyArty Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 (edited) 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.

ice225 Posted December 13, 2018 Author Share Posted December 13, 2018 They had at least two and a camera-bird: LINK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HeavyArty Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Yup, seems to be two Sikorsky S-70s and a Bell 407 as the camera bird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

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..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
