Fuck helecopters.... I know 3 plane pilots and have piloted some myself. All of them say they would never step in a helecopter...

Helecopter? You mean helicopter? :lol

And I don't think any REAL pilot would thumbs down the opportunity to at least TRY a different type of aircraft.

The interesting fact is, a helicopter has a better chance of surviving a total engine failure than a fixed-wing plane does, because it can autorotate to a small patch of ground, without needing a long, unobstructed landing zone.
