The day of a RDG captain. At 4pm all pilots receive a nightly breifing via email of any changes, weather, or special notes. Then depending on the run show time, you show up to the airport around 7pm, 30 min prior to departure, check notams, weather and preflight. Flight plans are already filed. Check with dispatch for any last minute changes. Depart rdg on your scheduled run. You'll pick up anywhere from 50lbs-1000 lbs of specimens at your stops, some stops are pickups, some drop offs, some pick and drop off. You'll return to rdg by 4am after doing 6-9 legs depending on which scheduled run you were assigned. Most paperwork is all done on the iPad, so you send it off to dispatch, verify they received it, and you're driving home about 20 min after returning home.

You will do this 4 times a week with weekends off.
