well, could be a forced landing, which is no big deal in a helicopter.

engine can quit but blade and tail rotor are then disengaged from transmission and autorotate, so all pilot needs to do is glide to a flat spot a little bigger than diameter of main rotor.

if it wasn't a forced landing the copter should have flown off by now.
