First - and most importantly, well done to that pilot for getting down safely.
Second. Why (just going by the radio reporting) did Miss Bassey's management charter a single pilot, single engine, vfr helicopter for this trip? The weather forecasts have been pretty consistent for a good few days that the weather for this weekend was going to be c*ap. It`s not as if she can`t afford a 2 pilot IFR charter to get her to her flight back to Monaco (£15000 dress + £3000 diamond encrusted wellington boots for the Glastonbury mud!).
