I reckon some well meaning Bureaucrat at the CAA will now peer thickly at the sheer letter of the law and find it necessary to shine his Rice Bowl and make an alpine event out of this.

Reckon the airplane driver is in the poop for not having land owner's permission to land?

I don't reckon "intent" nor commonsense ever enters into these kinds of situations!

Look back to the American who rescued several folks in Utah during a flood there....then did some charity rides to raise money for the victims....only to be done by the ******s in the FAA office for that area.

After thousands of letters, numerous editorials, news articles, and TV programs, and intervention by several Congressmen....they let him off with a stern lecture and a couple of years probation. (So kind and benevolent of them it was! )
