I'll be darned.  I'm using the same object at Cascade Creek Hydro ... and it sits right on top of the platform. We'll have to think about this one.

Update: If you go to slew mode, and go "up" then set it back down does it stop on the surface?  This may be related to another problem I'm seeing with ADE. I'm trying to make a starting point on top of a dam, but I cannot get ADE to recognize the elevation, so it starts at the base of the dam. This could be similar, something to do with the starting altitude (which I've ben unable to manipulate so far in ADE). Let us know on the slew, that would be a clue.

Hi Doug,

Steve W. figured out how to start at elevation using ADE when we did the helipad for Hospital at Anchorage...check with him if you have questions...

Problem is, I forget what I had to do to make it work. I'll need to wrack my brain to remember it.

EDIT: Part of it's coming back; I'm pretty sure that it had something to do with creating a transparent, itty-bitty  runway at the desired starting point.

If you look at Mahoney Lake Hydro and go to heli start #2, you will see the problem. The helipad is solid, but ADE doesn't realize that hard surface is 'up there'. I'm leaving the problem there so folks can see it and see how/if we can solve it. Danny may be having a similar problem with the MedEvac start. That heli platform works fine at Cascade, has a hard surface, but he starts being positioned under it. I bet it is a trick in ADE.

I fix this by using Instant Scenery and adding a default Helipad and scale it down very small. Place that in the center of the helipad in this picture, then lower the height to make the object you are using have it's wheels stay on the surface. It's trial and error to get it right.

I'm sitting on the pad having safely landed my beaver via slew  :-).   It is showing a hard surface for me on that helipad.  So this is not a problem related to ADEX I was thinking of. This is different.  Are you having problems with any other hard surfaces that are raised like that?

I've flown the entire medical flights and this is the only one where I sink thru. Maybe I try to re download all 3 files and try it again. Right now have to hit the rack have an early day tomorrow

OK I took out all three of the med files from the scenery library page, closed out FSX and  manually removed them from the Addon Scenery file reload the files from the page here then reversed the entire process then rebooted FSX and then added back all 3 files back on the scenery library page  hit ok went to the coordinates  for Paradise Cove with the same results. I even have tried different whip wings but still having the same results. I don't know what else to do except go have a scotch, but it's too early for that, according to the wife. If someone stumbles on to a fix fine otherwise on to bigger n' better things

av8erjm,
That helipad object is messed up and it's not anything that you are doing that is a problem; the problem is in the object it's self. I'm trying to find a solution, but so far no luck. I'm thinking it may be just the way it is for ever. But if I find what's wrong with it and we can swap the bad for the good, I'll let folks know.

In the mean time, raise a Scotch for me. (Doug could probably use a belt as well.)

OK thanks I'll stop the self abuse then, just kidding. Like I said no blood no foul, I've enjoyed the ''life flight'' as I have enjoyed all the other flights and challenges, I just adapt things a little to enjoy the whole, anyway good luck and I'll leave you guys to the business of keeping me entertained.  ;)
