You mean sitting at the airport? Just for commuters or is that policy for everyone being at their assigned airport 4 hours before show time? I don’t know a lot about 135 freight but from what I’ve heard from other pilots who do fly it (not at ameriflight) typically show up to the airport no sooner than 10 minutes before a truck shows up or 15 minutes after a jet lands with freight you carry out of a hub. No point in wasting your time/life waiting for UPS they say.
