Based on the video, when the camera captures the football stadium (rather far) and then closer in a wide turn to the left, with the three tennis courts BEFORE the stadium YOU CAN SEE THE 22 HEADING OF THE OLD AIRPORT "under" the AC (gray tarmac, easily recognizable). There the AC had to be 400- 450 feet AGL.
It's IMPOSSIBLE to "then" cross the old airfield in a PERPENDICULAR to the runway. Where did go the AC before "crossing perpendicular"? Nonsense is the word. Sorry.
Indeed. There are witnesses saying different, such as that bloke on the balcony or landing, who posted the video from straight then wing drop to disappearing out of his view behind his roof not far away from him at all.

Not a straight in approach on 12. He describes a turn in the rough area on previous flights, and compares this one.
