Default fixed wing or rotary wing?

Craig: I found that I had some Unlearning to do going from the "Stuck Wing"
to the helicopter. I haven't flown a " Stuck Wing" since I got my helo
add-on. The Stuck Wing license did help eliminate some cross country
navigation training that would have been more expensive in the helo.

I never really thought much about doing fixed wing, would that be worth
doing just to have or really only if I really wanted to use it?

I am not sure what to do as my heart was set on rotary but I want to do
it right first time.

Can anyone please give me feedback on this?
Thanks

If you plan on getting both get the fixed wing first. It will be

cheaper.
