Golf courses are good for something after all.Plane makes emergency landing on golf course
GREENLAND, N.H. -- No one was hurt when a small plane made an emergency landing on a golf course on Sunday.

A Massachusetts couple touched down at the Portsmouth Country Club when they had engine problems just after 11 a.m.

James and Suzanne Thornhill of Franklin were flying from Mansfield to Sanford, Maine.

The plane was not damaged.
