The A-Team

Question: Can a helicopter do barrel rolls and loop-de-loops like Murdock is doing after the A-team leaves the hospital and are being chased to the US border by Tuco?

Answer: They can, but only if they have a set of modified rotor blades to be able to do it. The Apache for one is able to do it. The Huey in the movie however is unlikely in reality to be able to do it - there would be no need to fit the modified rotors to what is essentially a transporter.

Question: I know the storyline is not the most important part of this film, but why is Face making the final plan for the climax at the LA harbour and not Hannibal?

Answer: Throughout the movie, Face has shown to be impulsive, and constantly deviating away from Hannibal's plan, in fact Face several times screws up because he hasn't followed the plan. Come the end of the movie however, and Face proves to Hannibal that he can tone down the impulsiveness, come up with a plan, stick to it, and see success, and Hannibal's comment to Face after he makes that plan are along the lines of "Good work kid".

Factual error: They are present at Frankfurt, Germany. But with a closer look you see a cathedral at the right side. This cathedral and the central station are located in Cologne, Germany - they are about 220 km apart. (01:04:15)

Trivia: Just before Hannibal, Face and BA break Murdoch out of the hospital by driving the hummer through the wall, watch the credits rolling on the screen of the movie they are watching. Reginald Barclay is the character that Dwight Schultz (the original Murdoch) played on Star Trek: The Next Generation, and the 2nd name ends with "StarBuck", the character played by Dirk Benedict (the original Face man) on Battlestar Galactica. We also see "Thomas", with the surname obscured - likely "Thomas Banachek", a character played by George Peppard, the original Hannibal.
