Pace.

2 miles out, 30 seconds roughly into the flight , you'd expect it to be at least 700-1000ft agl, ground does rise from the airfield but not that much. So something happened for them to be level so quickly after takeoff or descend.

Glide speed is 130kts is that enough to be a high speed impact?

I still think the wheel strut separated from the nacelle tends to suggest gear was down..
