Welsh 4x4 trail with a b-17 crash on it?

Does anyone know of this trail and is yes where does it start?

We used to hike along a path where there was an old plane wreck - I found a couple of bullet casings but that was probably 30 years ago... It was near Dinas but you couldn't drive anywhere near it.

The Flying Fortress crashed about here http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=26 ... 12263&lm=0

It was more of a shame as it was a training missing and was doubled crewed.

It's commonly known as the "bomber run", but also as the "dark road". There's a small memorial down the hill from the track towards the north end. The track itself is very tame but has incredible views
