Continuity mistake: John "Hannibal" Smith's rank changes from to Colonel to Lieutenant Colonel in different shows. In some of the early episodes we see him in uniform as Lt. Col. but in later episodes such as when they are on trial, Smith is wearing the rank of Full Colonel.
The A-Team (1983)
1 continuity mistake in show generally - chronological order
Starring: George Peppard, Dwight Schultz, Dirk Benedict, Mr. T
Labor Pains - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: At the beginning during the bridge jump scene, the A-Team van changes. It suddenly has round headlights, its hub caps can be seen popping off when it lands, and it doesn't have any spotlights. The real van has double square shaped headlights, steel spoked rims, and spotlights. (00:05:20)
Face: In no time, he'll be running around like a Mexican Jack Rabbit. One that just got out of therapy.
Trivia: The "crime they didn't commit" was actually stealing gold bullion from the Bank of Hanoi during the Vietnam war.
Question: How could they get an unconscious Baracus on commercial flights?
Answer: The reply does not answer the question. It does not ask how they sedated him, but how a sedated person can be checked in at the airport.
Answer: In the pilot episode, they would give him a tranquilizer dose with a needle injection. In two episodes, he tried to fly awake but went wild once in the air. In another episode, when hijackers held a plane, it was on the ground. When it took off, B.A. went into a catatonic state.

Answer: Several times, Face would pose as a doctor to get Murdock out of the Mental Hospital. How easy would it have been to convince airport officials that he was a doctor taking a sedated patient on board? Or simply tell them, this man is afraid of flying, so he had to be sedated. They could say, "Believe me, you don't want this man to be awake."
