Prestwick indeed! Bart made an excellent call on that one!! I think there's a clear connection. Developers often look for a stretch of flat land near the coast when they're gonna wedge in an airport. Flat stretch of coastal land... sound familiar? This may be more than a coincidence. Often, when I'm flying into a city, I'm looking for landmarks and don't you know it's usually a golf course that I recognize first, on that descent. Even though Philly isn't "coastal", there is Riverwinds GC directly across from the airport. I'm not saying that Riverwinds is a "great" track but it is fun and it's as close as a long par four from runway 29. This happens partly because golfers and airline pilots seek out very similar topography.
Now for a bonus question: How many golf courses have landing strips ON THE PREMISES? Heliports don't count. I'm talking working airports. I've played two. Hardly great courses but... I'm searching for the correct word... unique? In Pennsylvania, I count Farview Greens which I believe is extinct and which simply used the first fairway... predictably a straight, flat 410 yard par four. And then there is Butter Valley Golfport where the landing strip bisects 17, 18 and 10, 16. BUtter Valley has one of my all time favorite local rules, "Out of play - Aircraft landing strip - drop ball, without penalty, where ball initially crossed airstrip boundary (painted tires). That's an improvement on Farview where the tower (a.k.a. the shop) just made an announcement for players on the first hole to "... please stand aside as an aircraft landing on the first hole is imminent".
