I am at the last stage of my flight warrant packet. I am attempting to have my packet in for the May board and the only item which I am lacking is a LOR from a Senior Flight Warrant Officer. I am not in an aviation unit and the only experience which I have had with pilots is jumping out of their aircraft. Is the best COA for me to just go down to the flight line and start asking around for friends or is there a better COA? I appreciate any advice.

So I set up a meeting with 82nd CABs command chief warrant officer. You can call up there or email for a meet and greet.

I would recommend approaching one of the warrant officers in your unit. I received my letter of recommendation simply by impressing one of the team CWO’s on a deployment. He was very willing to connect me with another warrant who knew a senior flight warrant. The warrant community is comparatively small and tight knit, so chances are if you connect it’s any warrant officer you’ve worked with then they can point you in the right direction and help you network.

Just make a call to the 82nd CAB and ask to set up an appointment with the Brigade Senior Warrant Officer for WOFT packet LOR. Its really not uncommon and I don't know of a single Senior Warrant that doesn't set aside time for them.
