You use it just like the jeep. In fact, you still click the jeep icon to move. The difference is it is super fast and theoretically you now don't need a road to go to a place, i.e. you can skip over zones. However, you are still required to know the zone is there.

I think the other good thing about the helo is that if you move to a hostile held sector by road, you can't move away from the sector unless you defeat the force that's holding the sector. But with the helo you can't move away without entering the sector map.

Before I had the helo, one of my mercs was doing some ammo delivery by road and happend to run into a hostile force en route, and was chased to a hostile held sector. The hostile force then moved on, but my lone merc was stranded on that sector because she was not able to take that sector single handedly and neither was able to move away. Had to take the airport before able to extracate her. I think this is a nice touch.
