Looking at ADSB data and approach charts it appear the pilot did not even attempt to fly the approach properly either.  When he was 4.8NM from the field he changed course from a direct to airport track to a more southerly track as a self vector to intercept the lateral course for RNAV 28.  Aircraft blows through the final course and wags back and only finally captured the course at 1.5NM from the threshold.  The approach plate has the FAF at 4.5NM from the threshold.  Even then the aircraft never appears to get perfectly on course, aircraft never stable on the approach and self vector cut the approach very short.
