If he had taken my advice he would have made only the one precautionary landing and the crew would in all likelyhood have been alive to walk away from it. Subsequent preparation for takeoff would have revealed the supply tank switches in the wrong position, so again the accident would have been avoided.
There would have been considerable embarrassment and no doubt strong words without tea and biscuits back at the office, but the crew would be alive and the helicopter still flying.
It is amazing just how often embarrassment (or trying to avoid it) ends up killing people.
