It would be better to create your own - or maybe use the RAF codes if you
can find them. They give every helicopter site an Hnn code such as H92 but I
haven't seen a copy of their helipad RAFAC for ages.

We're planning to put a few Island helipads in, to cater for those of a
whirly persuasion; of whom some are in our midst. To do this we need
"airfield" codes, so they can be picked up by the menu.
Those going in include known sites used only during race periods. Would
you like to produce fictitious codes for them or should I just invent
some to cover the job?
Sites being included are
Ballavoddan. It has traffic most working days.
The site you flew to, near Cronk y Voddy.
Police headquarters, where they park, when not in use, during race
fortnights.
Nobles Hospital's three pads.
Race period pad on the Sulby Glen road, near the Bungalow. Surprisingly
sharp H seen in the new IOM photoscenery.
Sulby Bridge, where they stop to pick up TV recordings.
Waterworks, where they have a race period pad in the car park.
Using Heli Traffic 2009 I already have AI traffic at some of them, on my
setup.
