Start Location - Platform

Hi All,I have the flatten (352ft), my GMAX hospital placed via RWY12 (352ft) and GMAX platform (453.3 ft, landable, no crashes).In AFCAD, I've created the airport (elev 352ft), Helipad and Start Location both at 453.3ft.Everything looks right.The first time I choose the helipad (World/Airport), the helo starts out at the flatten elevation. If I then chose it again, it starts at the helipad.Do I need a runway under the helipad with an elevation of 453.3ft? Or should I just make the airport elevation the platform elevation (not the flatten elevation)?Thank you.Jim

Hi Jim,As far as I know there is no way to get it correct in the first try. The first time the aircraft seems to be always placed at the flatten height.

If the world should blow itself up, the last audible voice would be that of an expert saying it can't be done.
