I don’t think he had the airport, much less the runway in sight when he said he did and his request for 30 R would have had me pushing the buttons for the equipment. Of course we don’t know what the controller is saying to other folks in the Twr. That he could not even place himself on xwind, downwind, base or final speaks volumes…was the aircraft even capable of being correctly configured for landing at the speeds he seems to be flying. What speed is he maintaining…any idea?
