PrivPil:

the landing was definitely safe, the only injured person has fallen off the verge of a cliff…

In this case the airframe is not broken, apparently not even a scratch.
Why? Perhaps because the crew tried to avoid unsafe actions, either aborting the landing or taking off from an unsafe position in marginal weather conditions? The decision is always with the pilot(s) and need to be respected.
The aircraft and crew are required for the next rescue as well.

If you doubt then don't. Every pilot, either professional or not, has the very own skills and limitation, on that day in that moment and situation, which he or she needs to understand and respect.

Please tell everybody again what you believe is common sense.
