In terms of operations, give me a helo op over fixed wing anyday. In my experience there is a definite difference in attitude between the two, the rotary guys are far more results orientated - goal focussed if you like. Fixed wing ops tend to have far more crew "issues" and can be hard work, especially in terms of building working relationships, with people who can seem confused as to where they fit into the overall scheme of things, tends to be more of a problem with the younger crews...
