A sporty approach that is for sure. However the report mentions Ground Speed and not IAS! As we don't know the wind component between 4 and 2 miles it makes it impossible to say if they were unstable. For all we know they had a 30 knot tail wind (180kt GS at 2.4 but 150kt IAS) which turned into a headwind below 500ft.
