Background

Handley is a mercenary. He is a Vietnam Veteran.


During the events of Airwolf: Season 2 Episode 8 HX1 played by Allan Graf

Dunkirk and Mace Taggart are flying a helicopter with Joe Ganns, Decker and Handley. Joe asks Dunkirk how much he is going to make from their operation, but Dunkirk only laughs. They land outside of a restricted area of the DAVSCO Aircraft corporation and after breaking in, start shooting the guards. Taggart gets into the HX1 helicopter and flies off. Stringfellow Hawke goes to a mercenary camp and speaks to Joe. Hawke looks at Joe's M16 and comments he must be making some good money, which Handley hears. Hawke asks about the HX1 raid and Joe tells him some people thought he might have done it. Hawke mentions how Mace and Saint John used to pull similar operations as the HX1 heist, and Joe says they are both dead. Hawke leaves and Handley tells Joe they have a problem. Hawke goes to a bar where Dunkirk is telling Decker and Handley about work in the Persian Gulf. Decker asks Hawke why he hasn't been around lately and Dunkirk asks Hawke what he wants. Decker accuses Hawke of leaving Saint John to die and Hawke back hands him in the face. Hawke accuses Dunkirk and the others of working with Saint John. Hawke leaves and is confronted by Joe, Decker and Handley who beat him up. Dunkirk tells Joe, Decker and Handley, Hawke came to talk with him and Joe tells him he doesn't want to hurt Hawke, but Hawke is getting too close to their operation. Hawke points a gun at the group and Mace walks towards him with his own gun drawn. Hawke tells Mace he's been told Saint John is dead, but he doesn't believe it and asks Mace where Saint John is. Mace then accuses Hawke of leaving him to die. Another flashback happens of Mace and Saint John escaping from the Vietcong. Hawke asks why he stayed "dead" and Mace tells him he wanted to make money on the cocaine trade. Hawke demands to know where Saint John is and Joe hits him in the back of the head with his pistol. Dunkirk tells Mace to kill Hawke, but he can't do it. Dunkirk is hosting a demonstration of weapons to Armand. Dunkirk has Mace demonstrate the HX1. Airwolf arrives and Mace starts attacking Airwolf. Hawke eventually fires back, causing the HX1 to blow up in the sky. The wreckage of the HX1 lands on the people watching the demonstration, killing Handley and the others.
