That is a valid point regarding placement of wind turbines or other obstructions in an airfield environment! I doubt it was a factor here but with the attitude especially with those horrendous wind turbines money and profits rule over safety!
With the huge profits they generate to landowners the placement of those awful wind turbines should be resisted anywhere near or on the flight paths to airfields!
Often some airfields have natural obstacles and it is up to the pilot to be familiar as well as maintaining the correct speeds and profile for the given conditions!
Above all keep the thing flying even into a hazardous landing area!
