I returned to the flight deck about ten minutes after our final go around at Roanoke and I climbed into the jump seat behind Horne and Weight. We had reached our cruising altitude of 21000 feet and 300 knots and were heading direct to intersection FINKS, which is part of the SHNON TWO arrival into Dulles.
Because of the short duration of the flight home, we had already begun planning our arrival. Horne and Weight received the ATIS (Automated Terminal Information Service) which details the current status of the airport including active runways, weather conditions and any other notable information.
