get your Commercial pilot license- Rotary wing after WOFT , its an easy test and makes it very easy to get your FW ratings afterwards......then on your own time build as much time as you can ....OR get lucky and get a FW slot through the Army while you are there( which is very hard to do but its possible)
you only need 250 hours PIC in airplanes to get an ATP Airplane Multi Engine Land! Log your helicopter time using the part 61 legal definitions ( youll have to look them up because I cant remember for sure)
I got hired at a 121 ( regional ) with 300 hours of airplane time!! 1800 hours total time with 1500 in Army helos. I got alot of flight time in the Army because I was an instructor at Rucker for my last 3 years, of course that helped out with time building too.
Good luck in the Army.....it was a great time!
