A correlation I have seen is that USAF/USN/USMC helo pilots all went thru mil fixed wing training. They seem to have an easier time getting on at legacies. I don't know if it's their bro network, their mil fixed wing training, or what. But every bro of mine going to the airlines after flying army helos gets the disclaimer that it's not always quick. Fortunately, regional life and pay is a lot better than when I did it a few years ago.
