Tresco Heliport

Tresco Heliport (EGHT) on the Isles of Scilly brings a detailed Southwest England helipad and nearby Tresco Private Airstrip to FSX, with accurate pad placement, a central crossing path, and a correctly scaled waiting room. Static helicopter, tractors behind the building, and a fire engine add convincing day-to-day atmosphere.

Tresco Heliport, Isles of Scilly, Southwest England, UK (EGHT). Includes static helicopter, correctly sized waiting room, tractors parked at the back of the building, accurate helipad locations, path which runs across the middle of the heliport, a fire engine. By Ryan Bell.

So this is about 90% accurate to the real thing. This heliport is positioned on the approach into the Tresco Private Airstrip which is also included in this file. There is another freeware Tresco Heliport which is pretty good out there but it was let down a bit by the accuracy and detail. So I have decided to take on the challenge of building my own. I am most likely going to do an update for this heliport so stick around. Again thanks for downloading it is much appreciated and I hope that you Enjoy this scenery.

Installation:

  1. Just drop the file, EGHT_ADEX_RB.BGL into your C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Addon Scenery\scenery file and your done.
