Portsmouth International Airport at Pease[1][2] (IATA: PSM, ICAO: KPSM, FAA LID: PSM) (formerly known as Pease International Airport) is a public-use joint civil-military airport located one nautical mile (2 km) west of the central business district of Portsmouth, a city in Rockingham County, New Hampshire, United States. It is owned by the Pease Development Authority.[2]

The airport is located within the Pease International Tradeport[3], a result of the ongoing redevelopment of the former Pease Air Force Base which was closed under Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission action in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

It shares the runway with the Pease Air National Guard Base, which is actively utilized by the 157th Air Refueling Wing (157 ARW) of the New Hampshire Air National Guard, an Air Mobility Command (AMC)-gained Air National Guard unit operating the KC-135R Stratotanker aircraft.[4]

Pease is one of 7 Launch Abort Sites and one of 18 Emergency Landing Sites for NASA space shuttle orbiters.[5]

The airport does not currently offer scheduled commercial airline service. It served as a hub for Pan Am from 1998 until 2005, when all mainline Pan Am flights at the airport were suspended. It was also one of a handful of airports serviced by the short-lived Skybus Airlines which ceased operation in the spring of 2008
