The article in the body speaks of an ultralight. Also that it apparently broke up in flight, that pieces were found away from the crash site.

So a stable approach but at a somewhat higher speed than normal? At least it is to my eye. No PA sounds, no calling for "brace, brace", in other words the crew expected a "normal" precautionary...
