Follwing on from my Glen Coe heliport and scenery add on I now bring you Aviemore and the Cairngorms heliport, scenery and mountain rescue locations. There are six hillwalking and camping expeditions who are frankly ill prepared for the wild Scottish mountains. Each one is in trouble and in need of a helicopter rescue. See if you can find them and save them. To make things a bit easier for you this time I've included points of interest markers to guide you to the right spot. A couple of them are in tricky positions so will require your finest helicopter piloting to land safely.
On top of that there are some other little detials you can enjoy finding. From the Cairngorm mountain railway to the shores of Loch Morlich there are some nice little scenes to add a bit of life and realism. I've removed a lot of the trees from the Cairngorm mountains. In real life they're incredibly wild and barren. There's really very little tree life above the lower heights.
If you aren't too familiar with the Cairngorms national park you can read up about it here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cairngorms_National_Park
The heliport is positioned in a field just outside of the Scottish highland resort town of Aviemore. The mountains themsleves are a short flight away due East and slightly North East to the base of the Cairngorm Mountain railway. If you get lost turn on your points of interest and it all should be well marked.
To see all the little details you'll need these two mods installed:
You'll need Dave's people library by Badmed https://flightsim.to/file/5452/dave-s-3d-people-library
And you'll need this asset library by Mikea.at https://flightsim.to/file/1923/mikea-at-assetpack
As always big thanks to those guys for making those assets available for people to use.
All the rest of the buildings used to replace the auto-gen ones are from Asobo's own library so should appear.
Enjoy
I am flying Neofly rescue missions out of EGQI in this area. Thank you for keeping the helipad scenery separate from your other fixes and look forward to seeing you update this for SU9 (fingers crossed)

Thanks. Seeing as there's clearly still interest in getting the helipad working again I'll make this my next project.

Hey thanks for creating that man, I love the series. I wanna learn how to do this too.

Thanks. They're quite easy to make. The heliport in this scenery no longer works. I'll try and update it at some point. The mountain rescue missions still appear though.

Would love to fly this area as I know it quite well. According to the compatibility section it looks like it doesn't work with the latest updates but has anyone tried it?

Hi. The scenery and scenery editing should all work ok but sadly the heliport in Avimore won't appear because Asobo changed the way that works. I do have plans to update both this and the Glen Coe heliport and scenery I made but I just need to find the time. In the mean time you can still use this scenery but you'll need to take off from the closest available airfield.

Where do you save the files "Dave's people library by Badmed and asset library by Mikea". When I open them they are in Notepad. Is this correct?
I assume your file goes into the Community folder in MSFS.

Yup, everything always goes into your community folder, including both those asset libraries.
