Default Immorality is good for 50 years

Yesterday, however, I was flying from Hampton into Maine, and as I
passed PSM I heard pilots calling 'Pease Tower', only to get a
response from a gruff voice that identified itself as 'Portsmouth'.
Rest in peace, Harlan Pease! Your immorality has been repealed.


I flew into Pease a couple of weeks go, and it is hard to get oahold of
Pease
tower. Portsmouth tower responds quickly though.


The old Williams AFB near Phoenix converted to a reliever some years ago
(five or ten??) and It's now Williams Gateway. I noticed a lot of people
calling it "Gateway", though it seems the controllers will respond to either
name.
