Our son started out flying helicopters after he completed all his fixed wing ratings, he flew for UTC for a number of years, got his ATP rating and changed jobs to another company and now flies a Falcon 2000. He's has his ATP rating in fixed wing as well. I believe he now spends about 10 days every six months at Flight Safety for recurrent training. He loves what he does and enjoys helicopters as well as fixed wing.
She should start on training now and get a private fixed wing license at least to see if she likes it up there.
As Joe say, military is the way to go, since the govt pays the bill. Helicopter training hours are expensive compared to fixed wing.
