"My uncle is former marine core and he used to fly helicopters for the military. He's been living with me for a few months now until he can afford a place of his own, but it made me think: Would a helicopter be a good idea to have in a zombie apocalypse (providing you had someone like my uncle who knows how to fly them)? I think that once you were bugged in, you could use it as an easy source of transportation to search for food or supplies in a wider radius, and it could also be used as a quick escape if you needed to bug out. For fuel, I'm pretty sure helicopters take standard Jet A fuel, or maybe diesel. Either way, you could find the fuel at the airport and just fly right in, drop down, and load up while you have your partner(s) covering your back.
What do you guys think?"
