[edit] Sikorsky Piasecki X-49
What exactly is your question on this? It's not in the H-series, but the X-series, and was assigned around the same time as the Boeing X-50 Canard Wing (early this decade). I assume you know that, but your comments in the edit summary have me flumoxed. - BillCJ 03:58, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thought it said, XH-49. Still, it is unreferenced, even if I got the designation incorrect. I had assumed that the "XH-49" would've been the Piasecki P-16H-1A or whichever model that the Army was evaluating about the time the Cobra came along. --Born2flie 04:07, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- It's OK, we all misread things. It's definitely unreferenced. I have no problem with tagging it, and should have thought to do it myself. - BillCJ 04:19, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Warrant Officer (United States)
Just read the Warrant Officer (United States) page, and it looks good. I do have one question: I was under the impression that the Army (I won't say U.S. here since the post already says it ;) ) also used Warrant Officers as helicopter pilots, but nowhere in the Army section is this mentioned. Am I mistaken, or is this not so anymore? - BillCJ 04:50, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
- I'm a Warrant Officer helicopter pilot in the Army. I wrote the Army section to minimize it becoming Aviation-centric, since the pilots only make up about 44%, but we seem to be the most visible group of the quiet professionals. --Born2flie 15:23, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
I've assumed that's what you were (a WO), esp given your focus on writing the article and accuracy in it. I understand you're not wanting it to be aviation-centric, but you could mention the pilots last. 44% is too large a group to be left out completely. If you don't feel right writing it yourself, just send me a good source, and I'll try to work up something. Thanks. - BillCJ 15:43, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
- Bill, I just posted for some help on the WPMILHIST's United States Task Force page with the article FlieGerFaUstMe262 keeps reorganizing the sections with nothing but an expressed preference for seeing it that way. Makes it contrary to even how it was setup as a section of the Warrant Officer article I split it from. The best reference would be to look at the links to the recruiting website (GoArmy.com) or the USAREC website (usarec.army.mil). --Born2flie 16:27, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
