I had a tiny chip out of the end of my horizontal tail stab following ground crew damage on the ground (about 1" nick) & would not fly that....
Is that Hugh's R44? Red & White. Can't be that many to choose from in the hangar at Bankstown.

Thanks for the photos. Pretty incredible. Monocoque? Testimony to weathercock stability?
Personally, I hope the PIC is not crucified. Many pilots die from their mistakes; the rest learn.

BTW; the damage looks all impact, not flight.
