I've been working on some new helipads for FSX. Landing on them is challenging but its good fun. Helipads like this are built every summer here in British Columbia to access remote forest fires.

Ya, I got some work to do getting things sized up properly. The logs are a bit on the large size as well.

I think you might need a ladder to use the steps! But that really looks great work :ernae:

I wouldn't change the logs, they look great. All in all, I think you're doing a great job. I would change the axes and step sizes though.

I agree. great texturing on the logs and great concept. I have a few hillside pads I have done for a project as well, fun to land on for sure.
