Twitter user Nicholas Walstrom has found and released the original dub for Wings of Honnêamise: Royal Space Force as it was first shown at Mann's Chinese Film Theatre in February of 1987, a full month before release in its native Japan, though at the LA screening it was known by another name: Star Quest.

Here's the original tweet from Nicholas Walstrom:

If you want to know more about this release, you can read a very informative article over at Zimmerit.moe.

Thanks to our own Robert J Frazer for flagging this to me, as he's stuck in airport right now and couldn't file it himself. Good luck Rob!
