Yes, thatīs the article i was talking about...

But when freak high winds set in, Mr Franzekson asked the pilot, who has not been named, to release them instantly onto the craggy rock-face below, apparently not realising how high they were
I donīt know how the pilots was operating-with mirrors, VR or "only" with radio communication to the rescuers?

Either way-the investigation will (hopefully) show, what really happened...
And (hopefully) the company is going to recheck their procedures...and kick some a**s if necessary..
