The final report says main cause was officials permitting the flight in the first place. I see that as "other" though the physical cause was bad weather. The fact that the pilot didn't have the required skills falls on the officials permitting him to fly in the first place and doesn't constitute pilot error as such.
@firstuserhere The weather at 6am was foggy with winds at 5kph; at noon it was overcast with winds at 7kph. The crash happened at 8:20am.

It's not impossible that it played a role, but I don't know enough about piloting helicopters to say how challenging that would be.
