Great Episode

As for 'definite fiction', it's a fictional show so you can chill

Not great

[cabakota00 · 6/10 · 25 April 2019]

I'm OK with suspending disbelief with some of theses episodes but this one is a little tough for me to swallow. Johanna Brewster's character was shot, re-couped, escaped, then to fly to Burma (its Myanmar now I think) to confront kidnappers. Mmm sorry. Hard to suspend disbelief. And the last 2 minutes of bonding time seemed forced. And it looked like Higgy was extremely uncomfortable when TC hugged her. Ugh. I hope this show can do better in the future.

Episode asks for a short memory

[M0E_Szyslak · 1/10 · 13 June 2019]

The last time we saw this woman, she shot and killed 2 cops.

But the audience is asked to forget that so we feel sorry for her to move along the awful narrative.

Typical, Improbable, Unrealistic Episode

[buddybradley-22665 · 4/10 · 7 April 2019]

Magnum often relies on plot points that lack common sense, so I've come to expect and accept some improbable silliness. This one went beyond the usual, but if you're okay with the rest of the episodes, you'll be okay with this one. There were two major points in the show that didn't make sense: 1. After a season of barely seeing the helicopter (except during the opening credits), we get an extended helicopter chase. But why were they dangerously maneuvering when they could have simply gotten a little altitude and followed along. TJ says that the other guy is faster, but he keeps catching and passing him. 2. They fly to Myanmar and back in one day during daylight hours. Not possible. Lots of problems with the whole trip. Just close your eyes and hum "it's a Small World."

Unbelievably bad!!! DO NOT WATCH

[glenswebber · 1/10 · 26 November 2020]

Last episode of this show I will watch.

Short version: Magnum and his friends actively become accomplices to mass murder, human trafficking and numerous other crimes.

This includes the murder of multiple police officers and his "best friend". smh.

I am genuinely shocked this was ever written, let alone made.

Definite Fiction

Facts

Bell 206 120 knots, 222 km/h, 138 mph

MD-500 135 knots, 250 km/h, 155 mph

The Bell Helicopter has an "articulated rotor system", by flying beyond the restricted angle, degrees, you can over torgue the rotor mast and lose the entire rotor mast.

The MD-500 has a Fixed Rotor System, aka Rigid Rotor, and can literally do a mid air loop, and go inverted (upside down).

In later years the U.S. Army as the U.S. Department of Defense Proponent for Helicopters, abandoned the Helicopters with articulating rotors like the UH-1, OH-58 (Bell 206) and switched to Rigid Rotors starting with the 1979 UH-60 "Blackhawk", except the CH-47.

The reason this took so long was Political nothing to do with Performance, nor Safety, Democrat President L. Johnson's wife had HUGE numbers of stocks in Bell Helicopters. And the articulating rotor was a U.S. Design, and the Fixed or Rigid Rotor was the Russian Design as the Igor Ivanovich Sikorsky "Sikorsky" design, during that time U.S. Versus U.S.S.R. and Warsaw Pact Nations anything Russian was automatically not a good design nor idea, U.S. Congress would not Appropriate funds.

"CIA Rogue Agents", never, the CIA would send their Special Activities Directorate (Division, S.A.D.) and Special Operations Group (S.O.G.) "Operators" with Us attached, to solve that problem. If we fail, they send U.S. Army Special Forces 1st Detachment Delta and or U.S. Navy's Special Warfare Development Group (DEVGRU).
