After just the briefest read of this very short thread, you'd notice that Seloco had already taken the trouble to post this....
A later BBC report (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-48251547) shows that the Cirrus had previously landed at the private strip alongside the A40 to pick up two pax. It had just taken off when the accident happened.
