Not landable in FS9, see feature description.

I may look into it again for an update if there is enough demand. The old methods I recall to make fs9 surfaces landable is a pain to do so i skipped it for now.

With such a sexy helipad it seems a shame to not be able to land on it (FS9)

Okay so I know what to do. EDetroit, dont worry, there is a freeware on avsim that makes all surfaces hard. Just have to remember it and dig it out.

Your FS9 shot there sure looks sexy. My FS9 is a bare install for testing only and it looks quite sad in comparison.

Thankyou Martin, my FS9(.5) is far from a default FS9 and I love it dearly. Of course excellent sceneries like FT's transform it.

First thing I did after arrival, fly over to the hotel!
Be great if it could be hardened, and maybe a few other spots.

I mean, there is so much to look at...

Wonderful, wonderful scenery, many thanks for the FS9 version!

Ed I have a question for you, is that the Nemeth? Isn't a pain in the butt with all the smoke effects when you land with it?

Hello, yes it is the Nemeth S76. I like it a lot and is the only rotorwing I really fly in FS ..... I don't notice any wild smoke effects when I land but then I fiddle with everything. lol

I just made a flight from the "Skydive" to the Burj El Arab. A great short scenic flight that is a challenge as well ....makes a nice change from flying my heavies.
