Helicopter v Fixed Wing.

Guys,
A good friend of mine asked me which is the most difficult to fly, a helicopter or a fixed wing.
I automatically thought helicopter but having never flown a fixed wing maybe that is just a myth, so i'd be keen to hear the experiences of those of you that fly both.
Many thanks.

Having flown both, the answer is, as with most questions, it depends. It depends on the machine and what you are doing with it. Each have their own 'difficulties'. All sorts of folk of varying ability happily qualify on both.
