GPS Enabled Oil Rig Platform

File Description:
An FSX Oil rig placed at the correct real life coordinates about 100+ miles from Aberdeen and Peterhead. The landing pod has GPS facilities and a code of RIG1 Meaning you can start at the pod and/or fly to it by entering RIG1 into the GPS Direct To. A Cargo Ship sails from the tidal Aberdeen Harbour at 06:18 Local time and heads for Peterhead which is an hour away. It joins another Cargo ship there and the two set sail for the Piper alpha rig some 5 hours away. Sailings are twice a day and can be followed by boat plane. The rig landing pod is excellent for landing practice in a helicopter and especially with the built in GPS coordinates.
