Yeah. Not sure if its the same flight school. But my old school sold a a Piper Seninole to them a few years back. Apparently on one mission they were using auto pilot and had a trim runaway. When they disengaged the AP the ACFT went into a full nose down attitude. They couldn't recover and I think smashed into the sea. No survivors. Like I said not sure if was this school, just know it was in Portugal.
