Welcome to the Cellar, Beagle, and thanks for the research!

The best known plane, a small jet, that flew on autopilot until crashing after decompression was the one carrying golfer Payne Stewart. There was apparently a similar incident in 2005 that involved a Boeing 737 in Greece that killed 121. Apparently they call them "ghost flights."
