"Our thoughts remain with them at this difficult time," Dorset Police said in an official statement.
"On Monday 21 January 2019 a plane carrying both men was flying from Nantes to Cardiff when it lost contact with Air Traffic Control, north of Guernsey.
"Sadly a search and rescue operation was unsuccessful in locating the plane and the two occupants," the statement continued.
"Subsequently AAIB [Air Accidents Investigation Branch] and privately funded search teams were deployed to the relevant area. Using specialist equipment the teams succeeded in locating and identifying the plane and recovering Mr Sala's body."
