When you say awful lot of pilots out of work though? Is this really true for rotary? The rotary industry hasn't suffered nearly as much as the fixed wing over the past year.
It is true to some extent when you consider that in UK a significant number of the fixed wing guys now out of work have rotary licences too and will be looking for anything they can get - I personally know three guys who've lost fixed wing jobs and are now applying for rotary jobs.
