From the BFU interim report:

"...the airplane was in about 5,400 ft AMSL with a heading of about 117°.
Then the crew initiated a right-hand turn using the autopilot and continued the descent. An altitude of 2,096 ft AMSL had been pre-selected..."

Memmingen airport altitude is about 2070 ft. Were they trying a visual autoland then
