To fly BELOW the airport surface is never recommended. Cumulo granite could

Lebanon NH airport is located on a ridge or butte. It would indeed be
possible to fly below the RUNWAY surface, but of course that's not
what the Class D requirement suggests. It extends from the surface of
the ground at any point to 2,500 feet (whatever) above that surface.
So I reckon that in the case of Lebanon, the top of the Class D tuna
can would be rippled: higher where the airport itself is situatated.
