Bkk Airport Golf Course
Reference the golf course that lies bewteen the two runways at Don Muang International in BKK, is this course strictly for airport employess, or is it a public course, or is it affiliated with an aiport hotel, or what. Anyone know?
I have always wondered over the years. Surely it must be a security risk, no matter what cetegory it falls into, and it must also rank as one of the wierdest locations in the world for a golf course.

Not 100% certain about this but I think you will find that the golf course belongs to the Thai Air Force base on the opposite side to the civilian terminal. To get to the golf course I presume you would have to be able to first satisfy Thai Air Force security.

Correct,- it is owned by the military and has been there a very long time. To play you have to be invited by a senior member of the Thai Air Force, so definately no public access,- even Qantas bypassed it en route to the grass at the end of the runway. There would have been real trouble if they had chewed up a green.
