Just realize that you will in all likelihood never have to do carrier quals because getting tailhook is a minority selection. Just playing devil's advocate.
This information has been thrown around a couple of times lately, and in the interest of putting out good gouge, I thought I'd correct it (I thought the same thing until recently).
Navy helos actually are only 40% of the aviation force. I don't remember what the Tacair number is, but I believe it's close to that. This comes direct from a recent brief from CNAF/CNAFR. I'm not sure where the 60% number that people throw around comes from. It might be a Marine number or a combined Navy/Marine rotary number, but the belief that Navy rotary makes up the majority of the aviation forces is incorrect.
I'll see if I can track down that brief and get the exact numbers. The bottom line for helo guys is if you stay in, plan to remain employed in the cockpit more than what has historically been the case.
