Following that, Boundless has as well announced, in the email, the release of Irish helipads scenery for X-Plane 11. As well as other sceneries, this scenery has been developed in partnership with Ciano35 for the past months and brings 12 highly detailed helipads to Ireland. A full list of them can be found below. The scenery does not only cover the helipads themselves but the close vicinity as well.

The scenery can be purchased through the Boundless website for approximately €11.20.

As mentioned in the introduction, two new sceneries were announced as well, both for X-Plane 11. They are Shannon Airport (EINN) and Palm Springs Airport (KPSP).
