Roger E. Mosley as Theodore Calvin, a.k.a. "T.C.": a helicopter pilot who operates a tourist charter business called Island Hoppers, wherein he pilots a Hughes 500D helicopter, decked out with distinctive livery. A former Marine Corps helicopter pilot in Vietnam, T.C.'s combat-trained flight skills are often solicited and put to good use by Magnum during the course of an investigation. T.C. is also powerfully built, a trait which Magnum often benefits from when he expects to, and often does, run into physical trouble. With the exception of some early season 1 episodes, T.C. avoids alcohol, instead preferring milk, soda, or juice, but mostly coffee. He often called Higgins "Higgy Baby." The episode Missing Melody refers to his daughter who has been kidnapped. His ex-wife is called Tina and he has a son.

Cousins - Edwin Starr and Roger Hatcher

After leaving the music business, Tami Lynn became a 737 pilot for a commercial airline.

I went to the city of chicago website once to pay a parking ticket and on the site a page caught my eye, it was a list of people who owed the city the most money for water. i thought it was funny and opened it up and there was an "ernest mosley" on there owing the city over $10,000 for water.
