Maybe I'll get lucky and he will paint it in factory default stripes.

Good to know. Seems like 3 years is more than enough to get a paint job done, but you never know...

Gotta think positive DonV!  Although I thought Bruce mentioned it went to the Arizona skydive company owner.   Surely I can send a quick email asking :)...

980 is not a great skydiving platform!

Don I remember reading somewhere someone jumping from the baggage compartment of either a 840 or 980.

Yes, they did some sort of jump from the baggage to set some record. I don't remember the details but I'm sure google could find it.

I also vaguely recall that it didn't go well.
