My shot is actually over Lake Rotorua with RW weather - took off from NZRO with a 30 knot cross wind!

Hey Hugh - I use to work at the ASB in that Building and Ive been on the pad - ironically the head of ASB's first name is Hugh!

[Anthony]

Great shots guys.

I tried to save a flight starting on the asb roof helipad but I was on ground level at startup–my guy musta been demoted or something…
I like those water textures in the Rotorua shot, what are they?

[Naki]

I dont think the ASB pad is hardened. The water textures are from Zinertek - the best I have seen so far for FS9

The pad is hardened, but you can't load a save flight on the pad -- that's a limitation of the sim.

[creator2003]

There is a fix for it and it is possible to start on the asb bank HCP has done this fix with start points and gps nav aids
