Those are my thoughts. Other than it is based on an aircraft departing the Black Rock helipad.

Just above, someone in the know of the history suggests it does come from a previous operators procedure in supply maintenance flights. There was a poster on here who used to fly the B-105 into Black Rock, perhaps he can shed some light.

There was a post above challenging the point to point mostly VFR nature of this route because if an S92 can't go there, why is it in the guide for that aircraft? I've never seen a route guide that was aircraft specific, rather than company specific, but...could be.
