There have been two tiger fatalaties in the last several years from spinning and non recovery.
Taramanui as has been previously mentioned (which occured during climb out, false horizion, etc, etc) and another one in Canterbury probably three years ago. I have not seen the actual report on the second one, but one suspects that it was the classic decreasing airspeed on climb out, lets make a turn, oh sh!t... That particular pilot had delcined offers to engage in spin training.
Love the wandering off topic!
