Please remember that the newspaper reporter will dramatise things. The park was actually empty, no risk to anyone. And it was a power-on landing.
And was it the right action? Definately in this case in my view. You can see the pictures of damage cage. The shock loading from the slip should also be considered. In this case interesting torque damage to the tail roter drive shaft.
I don't see this as a "land as soon as practicable" event - I see it as a "land as soon as possible" (but not a "land immediately")
