The only slight "spoiler" is that we learn the fate of Harmon Rabb senior.
Our Dynamic Duo, having survived being shot down, finally get closer to the truth about Harm's father and how he was cared for after escaping from a Russian prison camp in this enjoyable romp across Russia.
I must say, if Harmon Rabb offered me a flight in an aircraft after this number of ejections, I would walk!
The relationship between Sokol/Falcon and Parlovsky is revealed in greater depth.
"What do we do if Rabb and Mackenzie are still alive?"
Cue gypsy foresight - some switching between 1980 and "present-day" (which was filmed in 1998, 18 years later). We have another set of energetic high-jinks as Harm follows the trail of his father across the vast landscape of the Russian hinterland with his new gypsy friends.
There is a neat set of conclusions to the story-lines which have run through the preceding Season Three plot arc - Harm Senior, Parlovsky, Sokol, even Webb!
"Only migrating birds know where the Taiga ends". Finally, Harm knows (and accepts) that his father is definitely dead and that his quest - which took Mac further alongside him than anyone else in his life - is at an end.
A good episode, providing a solid start to Season Four in late 1998.
