A technical difference between the coastguard crew picking up their shopping and the RAF crew picking up their ice creams is a matter of where they landed.

The first landing was in a field, private property, where permission may or may not have been received. The second was on the beach. The land between high and low water mark belongs to the Queen. Therefore, her helicopter was landing on her property.
