Polemic Helicopter IFR Video

Hi

THis is my first post to the Rotorheads section. I simply do not know enough about helicopter ops to make any judgement on this and would like some feedback.

This video has been doing the rounds on social media these last few days, and, as you can imagine, there has been quite a lot of chaff in various comments sections from non-pilots and worse, non-pilots claiming too be pilots... you know the sort, the type that have a dusty copy of MS Flight SImulator in a drawer somewhere, yet still begin posts with "I have 46,000 hours, thought in Vietnam, Korea and lived for 20 years on an aircraft carrier, I was also a NASA test pilot, boy scout and girl guide since the age of six..... etc"


I understand that this is a Bell 407 in the Philipines and I think that the avionics suite is a G300.

Simply put, was this a legal operation in your humblest of opinons.

Thanks
