What is the role of fixed-wing aircraft in the Coast Guard?

I've taken a couple intro flights in helos and cessnas and personally I just prefer flying a fixed wing craft.
At least you've made the statement with a least some modicum of experience/understanding. I will say this - military flying is WORLDS different than civilian flying, and if I were you - I'd go into it with an open mind, because there is a fair chance that you'll like it more than you think.

I definitely will. I won't knock it quite yet. Even if I do end up flying helos, I'm sure I wouldn't be disappointed.

It's like sex with a porn star, or sex with a model. Either way you are getting laid.

Does this make flying the hummer like banging the chick that was hot in high school, but has put on 50 pounds?

No, we still land on boats. Having golden wings and not landing on a boat is more gay than Freddy Mercury having a three way with Elton John and a P3 NFO.

You can choose whether TACCO or NAV gets to be the middleman.
So much for you ever getting a recommendation for Hawaiian should you decided to quit going to oil rigs to give blow jobs and receive butt sex. But it's all better than doing large aquatic mammals.....

With a name like Hummer, you got to wonder what 5 men are doing when they are locked in together.

I think you're taking the posts in this thread a little too seriously.

Everyone has their role, and people do it professionally. The Hercs and -144s are necessary for the CG to operate effectively. If you're interested in the CG, go for it because you're interested in the CG, not because they accept blind people. That said, I personally wouldn't understand wanting to go into the CG and NOT wanting to fly helos. That's where 95%+ of the action is (on the aviation side). But that's just me.

The -144 is booooooooooring

To the OP...nobody in the group of Coasties I went through flight school with wanted fixed wing. We selected in groups of 20 (15 helo, 5 fixed). They had to make 5 people go fixed-wing each time. I was around for 5-7 of these selections. All those guys now say that they love it, but we all know they are crying inside.
