Spending the night in Charleston, VA. Started the day with a round trip to Jacksonville, NC. Bad weather in Atlanta resulted in 2 hour ground delay there. It's a must to always carry a good book in my line work, as the time allowed me to knock out another chapter in my current book, "A Short History of Nearly Everything" by Bill Bryson.
I flew today's first leg, made a good landing and approach, it was a text book classic, just like the sim, broke around 800 to 1000 feet. Allot of clouds and light rain on the return back to ATL, but a mostly smooth ride. The captain I'm flying with is a nice guy and easy to get along with. He's been with the company about 8 years and told me he started his aviation career after 3 years of med school, but then the money ran dry and he had to make a career change. After inherriting some money he said aviation was his new calling in life. Knowing this, I now picture him in scrubs since he has a very 'doctor-ish' look to him. His landing were firm, not much flare.
Sleep in tomorrow and schedule to do 3 legs. After returning to ATL, working a round trip to Panama City, but dead heading the leg down. Weather tomorrow is forcast to be good, scheduled to finish around 7pm. Roll into 4 days off and going home via the red-eye thorough Las Vegas. Should have me home by 7am Monday.
Going to bed now, Good night.
