I haven’t heard it for a while, either. I grew up in Poughkeepsie, and I remember when its three gates were actual gates, about 6 - 8 feet apart, in the three foot chain link fence separating the ramp from the single floor, single room terminal.
There was a land fill under the approach path where we used to go plinking with our .22s, lashed to our Schwinns . . . those were the days!
