can I comment as a scum-of-the-earth plank driver?

It works both ways..........

I've seen many rotary guys come into airline flying and get a command quickly because their rotary time was counted in full towards minimum command time.

I've trained ex rotary guys for the airlines, and some were good, and some were bad.....waddya know - just the same as the fixed wing guys. What a shock.

A slab wing can come off a modern commercial jet liner with 3000 hours and a Rotor commercial add on and still not have the same piloting and judgement skills that a 200 hour rotary pilot has
..........what a classic!!
