I've been looking for a video of the landing to see how it over turned, but haven't found one yet. I would have expected all airport runways to have multiple security cameras pointing at them t all times in this day and age.

Here is the first video I saw posted on the aviation subreddit.

It looks like he didn't flare, just continued strait in. Maybe they lost visibility?
Very strange. Almost like the altimeter setting wasn't set to the right number?
Doubtful. The radalt should have been screaming "sink rate" or something similar in the cockpit regardless of the pressure setting.

It looks like it tried to land before the runway?
I'm sure they do have video of the crash, but there's really no upside for them to release it. Eventually it'll come out, at the very least once the NTSB report is published.
Takes time to get that released and probably will eventually. Surely someone was plane spotting and got it.
