The 230mph is combined speed and they don't mention approach as the time of impact. Single engine prop planes can do between 140mph to 200+mph for some of the fast ones. Some of the business jets have higher landing speeds also. You would be surprised how low a lot of these planes fly over rural areas, they are well within range of some of these camera drones doing crop pictures.
