Cit: (Savoia): "However .. the film did use both models and mock-ups; I think the parts where models were used is fairly obvious and the mock-up might have been used for close-ups while 'Naomi' (Caroline Munro) was 'flying' the helicopter:"

Right.
Infact the mock-up was filmed for inside sequence, whit Caroiline Munro.
The RC model was filmed when missile hit the copter. I'm sorry
The father of my far sardinian friend still remember the summer of '76, whit the troupe in the road, whit various vehicles (and several Lotus too) and only one helicopter.
In the end credit there's this notice :"Thank to: Helicopter Hire".

I'm curious to know John Crewdson...
