Windmill was a flight instructor at the Army Flight Warrant Officers School in Fort Rucket and later flew experimental herlicopter prototypes at the same facility for the Army Aviation Test Activity. You might think that test-piloting helicopters is easier, or even safer than testing jet fighters. Consider this - helicopters don't have ejection seats. If you make a mistake, you ride down with it!

"When the GI Joes are sitting on a hot LZ waiting for an extraction chopper, they want fast air-support with maximum fire-suppression. The X-Wing Chopper clocks at 345 mph in it's stopped-rotor mode and can carry a bigger payload than a Dragonfly. Windmill can get there faster, with more thrust, and once he's there, he can make every piece of ordnance count!"
