First month of line flying. First 3 day trip done. (08/03/2024)

Was a long few days and got some good flying in. Before I left I got this gift which every aviator needs:



First day of flying (08/01/24) was a single leg to an outstation. Easy enough! Need more of those on my schedule.

Second day of flying (08/02/24) was uneventful. Noticing a bunch of planes have deferred thrust reversers. Stickers for the day:

Changed planes at some point and didn't have an iPad holder. Pilot monitoring duties only for that leg.

Ended up in a place where this is available. Should have looked for some rip-its...

A lot of flights on the CRJ200 require ballast to maintain a good center of Gravity. Depending on the flight it either shows itself as sand bags or rubber coated weights. This day (08/03/24) it was sand bags:

More stickers:

Longest part of the day is walking to get food sometimes.

Flew ~11.4 hours the last 3 days for a total of around 1195 hours. Have a stand up tomorrow. Should be fun.
