The Most Dangerous (And Expensive) Airports Ever Built

45. Don Mueang International Airport – Thailand

Year of construction: 1914
Risk factors: Golf course between the slopes

Having opened in 1914, this airport is one of the oldest in the world. Don Mueang also has a very unusual feature: there is a golf course located in the middle of its two landing strips.

This golf course does not have any type of fence that separates it from the tracks, so golfers must pay attention to the red light, which comes on when the planes are about to take off or land. It is not difficult to imagine that a poorly thrown ball could hit a nearby aircraft, even leading to an accident during takeoff.
