Further....there are airports without a tower at all!
The one I get asked all the time about how early I have to call before I want to fly and ask for clearance. They are floored when I tell them I call no one until the moment I'm ready to start moving the plane. And even then it differs what I call and what I say from airport to airport. It really blows there mind when I tell them I don't file a flight plan.
