Rarely is a shut-down on a Rescue every done here; rotors left running under an CAAN approved SOP & in the Ops Man.

In a crowd, a city, even a fooball field a shut-down makes good safety sense, on a remote mountain landing spot, with questionable weather & if You can hang the TR, then makes more sense to not shut-down; proved stable. idle, locked, load & escape......
