Once he'd made the (wrong) decision, he was quite professional about the mechanics of his recovery to land, I have to say!

Shame he made the wrong initial decision though

In mitigation, he was harping on about hydraulics issues and some associated maintenance. I have heard that AS350's have a notorious reputation for hydraulics issues - is that true?
