I am looking to learn more about the different airframes the army has in its inventory as far as where the best possible duty assignments are and what types of things to expect. I understand starting out WO1 are more or less in charge of learning the planning phases of the missions. What other goals should I be striving for once Warrant is a reality for me?

The UH60 will give you the absolute best choices in assignments. The AH64 will be at all dirty boot divisional assignments as well as the Chinook, so the UH60 is the most versatile choice when looking at assignments across the globe. As for a goal, if you do not have a degree awarded, make that your number one goal after becoming somewhat proficient as an aviator. The education is a MUST going forward and seeking a competent mentor is as well.

Thank you for this insight. It is much appreciated. I'm stuck at a point right now as to what degree I'd want to pursue. I'm leaning more towards aviation mechanic but I don't know what doors I can open up with different degrees

As an aviator I stayed away from all aviation degrees to provide variance abs other opportunities. If you wish to stay eternally in aviation once separated from the service, then an A&P would do and any other type of degree from Embry - Riddle.

Number 1 goal, be as proficient in your MOS as possible.
Number 2 goal, get your bachelor degree
Number 3 goal, if you plan on staying in past 20 years, get your Masters Degree.

(Sorry I don't have the Blackhawk assignments on here, I only took a pic of the 64 stations because that's what I chose, 47's were just an accident included in the picture).

I am, I'm in a bubble right now in between Common Core and Advanced Airframe. This picture gives insight on the flight school process.

Just to revert to my E6 humor, I'd say a big goal is to not end up back as an enlisted guy but that's me.

I hear you on that. I've want to travel all over the world and being able to fly is an added bonus. I've been to Alaska India and Afghanistan. Europe is my next goal.

Europe is awesome. Can't say enough good things about Prague and anywhere in Germany - unless you are downrange at Graf in winter (that really does suck).
