If the rig or vessel calls the helicopter for a change at a time when the crew is busy, what is wrong with saying "standby or wait"? It's what being an aircraft Captain is all about.
What a shame that that oil companies and passengers are seen as an inconvenience to pilots.
Thanks for confirming that you are part of the problem. With your breathtaking lack of any concept about how flight safety works, and if you are representative of your breed, we can be absolutely certain that there will be many more future wrong deck landings.
