980 Locations

I remain fascinated by the drug smuggling history associated with the 695.  While I realize this may be impossible to answer, I'm curious: given the large volume of Columbian 980's, how many were seized by the government compared to those purchased legitimately (HK tailnumbers)?

I don't know, but I do know that they legitimately sold a lot of them down there. Because of their hot and high performance, the 980 (and Commanders in general) have always been popular in South America.
