Flight Warrant Packet process/tips?

Less is more. Have three great Letters Of Recommendation, all with quantitative data on why you are the best for the job. Enumerated narrative such as “[number; hopefully 1, but not required] out of [however many] in the platoon/company.”


Keep your essay short and to the point. The board only has a couple of minutes per packet, so filler is not your friend. Make what you say matter with less and express why you would be the best for the job.

Resources: A good place to start is the military forum on Vertical Reference. Also, Army Aviation on Reddit has a lot of information. Those places also have links to good study guides for the SIFT.

I am currently in the process of submitting my warrant officer packet for aviation I had the packet at the July board and was not picked up I am believe I need to make my resume sound stronger if anyone has any tips they would be greatly appreciated. As well as I put the packet together as a SPC and will pin on SGT on Thursday and unsure if I need to redo everything as my new rank.
