James De Ville is a very clever guy, I went to Iraq with him in 2006 and spent 8 months there. He is an extremely competent engineer (obviously)
I do have to agree with you that flying a machine without little or any training was pretty stupid, but no different to (the old) Top gear crashing cars, I know it didn't happen very much, but it did happen..
I think it shows a good point to would-be engineers that not everything goes to plan in engineering.. I work with the Bloodhound SSC Land speed record team, we are asked to emphasise the fact to children that things do go wrong in engineering but its all a learning curve.. Adapt and overcome..
On another note, he's a great guy with tons of enthusiasm for engineering but in my opinion those choppers have o go 
Arte Et Marte My 1986 90 is currently on a full rebuild, with new chassis, Paint etc.. Very much a hybrid, TD5 Chassis, tub & bulkhead with a 200TDI and LT77 GB Painted in Stornoway Grey  2 years off the road, but getting close to completion now
