2. The area where the aircraft crashed appears to be unsuitable for landing. Slope limitations, rough terrain etc.
You must be kidding me! How flat do you need it to be for setting down letting one of the pax out to "verbally" confirm that all is well with the unlucky guys of the crashed helicopter???
I know pilots who would land their airplanes next to the 212, and I wonder how we move loggers and drillers around in bush all the time.

It's not really too much of a hassle stopping by to see IF you can at least lend them your First Aid Kit.

Well, but maybe it's better to let people die while they're waiting for the
"first responders"
to arrive?
