Helicopter

[Guest peterogan]

I'm saving up through a part time job to get a private pilot's license both for personal interest and so that is smoothens my WOFT quals a bit more. Thing is, I'm not sure whether to go for the Helicopter PPL or the fixed wing one. Obviously army aviators go helo most of the time, but I've honestly heard arguments for both.

I would just go fixed wing... you will let the Army pay for helo training. I was a high time fixed wing guy going in and the transition was pretty easy.

Please read other threads. This identical topic is currently being addressed in the "Help ppl vs fixed ppl" thread.

Damn, another one!

 

I have to ask. Do Airforce wannabees ask this same question about becoming jet pilots?,...'cause I don't recall Richard Gere asking himself this before joining the Navy to fly!

Tell me why this is a word for word copy of the thread I posted the day before???

Like literally copy and pasted.

Mendacio you're too young to be asking such questions. Wait till you're in the military...you're going to be asking A LOT of questions.

Lol I guess. I have to stop being so squirrelly.

Don't stop asking question! Better to find things out BEFORE you sign a contract!
