JFK Terminal 5 - 4/5 AM

Arrived at 5:43 am for a 9:30 flight. did not break stride on the walk from the car to the beginning of the precheck line. from the start of the precheck line to getting my bags back (including a secondary screening) was 17:52. posting this as I have seen a lot about early early AM lines and lack of afternoon lines but not so much mid morning flights.
