I'm not sure where the eclipse that you are talking about fits into all of this, but interestingly enough, it is shown to be going into Guernsey at 1800 LCT that day. Probably a complete Red Herring and not worth going down that road.
On the 18th January Sala flew to Cardiff in N531EA to complete the transfer & medical to join Cardiff FC. ( SEE MESSAGE BELOW )
(18th January 2019) Sala plane from Nantes landed at Cardiff airport at 9.17am this morning and is now on his way to Hensol for the medical
Landing at 09:17 from LFRS/Nantes Atlantique is "N531EA" Eclipse EA.500 N531EA ..parking on the Cambrian apron
Nantes, France Friday 18-Jan-2019 09:21AM CET
Cardiff, United Kingdom Friday 18-Jan-2019 09:16AM GMT

On the 19th N531EA was on a charter from Biggin Hill (0801 GMT) to Paris Le Bourget (0951 CET) so not available for Sala to use, N531EA stayed in Paris Le Bourget until 1601 CET on the 21st before departing back to Biggin Hill with an arrival time of 1550 GMT.

Now this next bit is supposition: After Sala had used N531EA on the 18th it was flown to Guernsey at some point & then departed approx 1415GMT from Guernsey to be positioned to Biggin Hill for the Paris LB Charter the following day, it is also noted that N531EA after arriving back from Paris on the 21st @ 1550 GMT was then again flown from Biggin Hill (1709 GMT) to Guernsey arriving @ 1800 GMT......... Why did N531EA go back & forth to Guernsey? Who was onboard on these flights? supposition would be that a certain set of initials would be on these flights........ Why was N264DB allegedly flightplanned to Guernsey on the 19th but went to Nantes? it is obvious that Guernsey plays a part in this whole conundrum but where it fits in is anyone's guess?
The AAIB should look at the crew/passenger manifests for the period 18/01/2019 - 21/01/2019 for both N531EA & N264DB as I am pretty sure it will make an interesting list of names.
Special attention should be on who was crewing the aircraft on each flight.
