Heliport,
Who?
People have expressed different opinions about texting but no-one has tried to defend what the pilot did.

If you haven't figured that out,you need to go back and read this thread from the beginning.

If you think there's no culture problem you are either very much mistaken or it's very different in your part of the world.
Things are no different in my part of the world.Heaven knows we have our own unique set of cultural issues to deal with.But,when we as a a group try to blame culture for a purely poor CRM and Hazardous Attitudes related accident,just because the pilot was well liked , had 10K hours and was British, we are equally to blame. An experienced pilot commits a rookie mistake and so it is culture.Is that what you want the next generation of pilots to get from this?
I certainly hope not.
