You usually have excessive speed when in cruise before you hit your minimum drag speed/best glide speed. So depending on aircraft(speed) you may maintain the same altitude for a longer period before you need to descent. Could also be a A/B transponder which doesn't give height/altitude info to the controllers.

At about 1:00 ATC first give a vector of 90°. That would send him out to sea. It was quickly corrected. I wonder why pilot wasn't higher.

Gliding speed for the C172 is 68kt. That would give the pilot about a mile and a half for every thousand foot height.

depending on wind direction and probably other factors this distance can be different a lot I think
