we have been having a discussion here at my base and i thought i would turn to the masses to see if anyone has any gouge on the subject.
thanks!
I doubt they would count for anything other than a resume bullet. Heck a lot of airlines don't even consider helicopter time.
Despite the fact that many military helicopters are faster and higher performance than most civilian light piston twins... Requires more skill and training and don't even begin to compare the complexity of twin turbine helicopter systems to a hershey bar with a couple of air cooled lawn mower engines hanging off.
