Does anyone know if there are any tutorial web pages out there that
detail how to find a particular building in the default scenery and add
a land-able surface?

AFCAD adds differing sized helipads on the ground.
(http://afcad.projectai.com/). It might be hard to add one to a
building though.

The only way to add one would be to 'slew' (and then stop) at the top
of a particular building, write-down lat/long (including altitude
data) then create a new AFCAD airport (addon scenery) file, then add
the helipad, along with lat/long and altitude data. AFCAD is pretty
easy to use, very good help-files.

'If' AFCAD helipads holds a helicopter building roof (?) the harder
part would be setting the helipad at the precise altitude, so it's
flush with the building-top.

AFCAD needs altitude data at the very point of the altimeter (gauge),
If the altimeter (actual pilot gauge inside the aircraft) is flush
with the surface on the top of the building, it might work the first
time, or need only slight altitude adjustments.

I'd try it but never fly the helos.
