Can a Warrant Officer transition between components seamlessly?

Your statement is too vague. Not equal how? Skills? Experience? On average? My response is regarding skill level. Be more specific for a more specific response.

CSM Darieus ZaGara - I have been in the Navy, Air Force and Army as Enlisted and Warrant Officer. If you never have and would never want to transition between services, how are you qualified to make the statement and what would make you want to join the discussion?

my response reflected what I was looking to say. As I am sure yours did for you. CW2 (Join to see)

My response was as specific as I saw necessary. I hope you have a nice day. CW2 (Join to see)

Conditional releases are not usually a big deal.

They actually are. Branches don’t like to just give up peopleCW2 (Join to see)

MAJ Ronnie Reams - Wow! great details!

From Wikipedia: The United States Air Force no longer uses the warrant officer grade. The USAF inherited warrant officer ranks from the Army at its inception in 1947, but their place in the Air Force structure was never made clear. When Congress authorized the creation of two new senior enlisted ranks in each of the five services in 1958 (implementing them in 1959–1960), Air Force officials privately concluded that these two new "super grades" of senior master sergeant and chief master sergeant (styling the incumbents as "superintendents" vice senior or staff NCOICs as does the USA and USMC) could fill all Air Force needs then performed at the warrant officer level. This was not publicly acknowledged until years later. The Air Force stopped appointing warrant officers in 1959.

Lt Col Timothy Cassidy-Curtis - yes, but those that were there were allowed to stay. Only Flight Officers now in USAF are in the CAP, too old to be cadets and too young to be senior members. The new super grades were not pilots AFAIK.

I last saw an Air Force CWO in Germany on Reforger in 1979 who looked prettty old. Interesting that during my first enlistment which was in the USAF in what they now call Civil Engineering I worked for a CWO the whole time, and there were Warrants in the Building and Utilities and Fire Fighting Sections. My CWO was a local civilian working as a driver in the Transportation Squadron who married Gen Timberlakes daughter and guess what? Got a direct appointment to Warrant.
