The wheels were down because they were on approach to land on 12, duh!.
With any sort of issue that isnt apparent to the passengers, then they would be the last to know.
They were 300-400 feet above the old runway, they were never landing on it, not even close, flying over it is part of a left hand circuit for 21.
