There is a standard take off & approach path, 180 opposite. Generally there is very little wind as the area is sheltered by trees. On approach you go over the trees, then descend over the car park which should be clear, then over the raised pad. I don't see why he is a "hero" for landing in a clear area as that is where he is supposed to be. I'm quite sure he had no desire to land on a car! The fuel load is kept very low to take 5 people, so whatever the wind, I'm surprised the machine ended up in such a sorry state but at least it appears the injuries weren't too bad.
