Famed Hollywood Helicopter Pilot Killed In Motorcycle Accident

Had Piloted Helicopters In Several Well-Known Films And TV Shows

A helicopter pilot who had flown in such movies as 'Rambo: First Blood Part II' and "Back the the Future Part III' was killed in a motorcycle accident May 5.

Harry Hauss was 87 years old. He was reportedly riding his motorcycle in the northbound lane of Interstate 5 near Templin Highway in southern California when the accident occurred. Details of the crash have not been released.

The website SignalSCV.com reports that Hauss also worked as an actor in at least 10 films and television shows, including a 1967 episode of "Man From U.N.C.L.E." He "almost always" played a helicopter pilot, according to the report."

One friend, June Deeter, who now resides in Indianapolis, IN said that in the nearly 50 years she and her husband had known Hauss, he had always been a motorcycle enthusiast and to her knowledge had never had an accident.
