I ferried a plane there to do NAS to JFK (actually there was another 50 down there and they needed to extra seats, so we followed eachother) and did a couple other ones like that while I was on reserve.
I got the pleasure of doing that 2 days in a row a couple of years ago myself. Did you have to make a fuel stop in CHS like we did? Winds were fierce and we were fully loaded to the teeth. All the pax were so delighted that we had to make a fuel stop. Had to make that fuel stop both days on the return to JFK. We made it to NAS nonstsop however.
