It is the Zodiac CH-601XL

Six in-flight break-ups.  Ten people dead.  Flutter is suspected.  Ailerons are not mass balanced by design.  Cable tension is supposed to assist in preventing flutter.  Scary.  Radar data shows these break-ups are not due to excessive speed. 
One of these incidents killed the co-founder of the flight school where I learned to fly.
