"The helicopter companies claim they do not fly before 8 am."
Several months ago I was dropping off at the airport... about 0620 am they were loading 4-5 helicopters up. There was some good twilight but the sun wasn't up yet. I decided that I was going to take a picture of it with my cell phone with the date/time stamp but by the time I dropped them off at the curb and drove back to where I could see the helicopters the last one was just taking off. I don't know if that is "normal", but to say they never fly before 0800 is incompatible with what I witnessed that morning.
