It looks like the helicopter fell making its way out of the compound as it fell outside the wall in the direction away from the house.

If you look at the pics the forward (burnt) part of the helicopter seems to be inside the compound. The after (unburnt) part seems to be outside the wall of the compound. That would indicate that it fell on the wall either in the initial landing or in a failed takeoff.

Thanks, I’ll have to give it another look. This danged astigmatism has on more than one occasion impaired my genius. :)

The tail of the helo could have been blown over the wall from the explosion.
