If the Brazilian accident airplane truly was a 560XL, then this video clip is not of the accident airplane. While I haven't quite figured out what the video subject airplane is, it clearly is not a C560XL.

Also, while the video shows strong crosswinds, it was supposedly raining heavily at the time of the crash, and there is no evidence of that in the video.

This video is not a CE560XL, looks to me like a Challenger 601/604/605.... Not too mention is 3-4k ft down the runway already still playing for a landing...!

That was my first thought but the more I look the more I think it's a small G something. 200 or whatever.

Looks like the CVR was not working at the time of the crash.

First fatal crash of a Citation Excel - out of a world fleet of 870 aircraft, first delivered in mid 1996. Today's crash was PR-AFA a XLS+ . https://twitter.com/bizjet101/status/499694585837146112/photo/1

The exact number of people killed in the crash wasn't immediately known, but there were no survivors, Agencia Brasil reported, citing officials from Campos' Brazilian Socialist Party.

The political figure, who was running in his first presidential election, was among the serious contenders, steady in third place in the polls.
