The other possibility is that helicopters are horrible POSs that crash much more often than fixed wing vehicles. All by themselves, without any help from weather or enemy fire. I used to carry a card in my pocket that allowed me to commandeer helicopters at NATO bases whenever my boss needed me to get somewhere fast. I never used it on my own volition. And when I was forced to use it, I hated the entire flight.

Give me upstairs on a 747 any time.
