No logged hours here yet ;)

I am torn between fixed wing and copters, which to persue.

Choppers rule! I LOVE 'em! And wouldn't ya know it - I'm afraid of heights in most any other circumstance. :-)

Still very much wet behind the ears so to speak, as I've only got a handful of hours in the air with a chopper. Mostly I was just trying to keep it steady just off the ground and probably never broke 300 ft. Did much better up higher where I wasn't as sensitive to slight changes in yaw (I tended to over-correct for it). Some in broad daylight buzzing boats and some at night, which is breathtaking. This was in N411MJ, a since totaled R-22 which was then owned by Dave Brookes, an excellent instructor based out of Stuart, FL who's out flying Learjets now. Really want to get back into it, but at $165 an hour, cha-ching! And you really do need to be able to afford to stick with it and fly as often as you can while training (which is cheaper than taking more time to go back over things because you aren't in the air enough). But yeah, oh my is it ever fun!

Don't have many rotor hrs, but about 2000 fix wing mostly multi.
Once you start, you can't get enough...

100+ fixed, 15 rotor. Been on a break for a bit, getting back in the saddle come spring. The local FBO I frequent has a new glass-panel 172R for rent, so gotta go check it out! ;Do;

3975 total time....give or take a handfull.

In the last ten years.....about 40.

Sorry guys....when the muse leaves you, it runs like hell. Couldn't care less if I ever see another airplane.
