1...the copilot seemed to have the plane on profile (cvr and fdr)
It's worth noting that the NTSB's 8 August press release states that:
" The crew reported that they saw the airport from about 5-10 miles out and that the airplane was on speed, course and glideslope down to about 200-400 feet. "
So pretty much all information available agrees that it was not a wild out of control unstable approach.

And that is confirmed by the FDR Data showing a pitch down just before the nosewheel hit.
