Flightaware.com definitely confirms the short flight:   



The complete FlightAware link is here (note that this will eventually link to future flights).

The departure time of the aircraft is 1947z (archive times are in UTC, or Zulu time).  I grabbed the archive for this period and am listening to it now. 

There is a lot of aircraft activity and at least one of the controller frequencies continually cuts out due to the higher squelch setting of the feed's scanner.  There is also a separate feed that scans just the tower, so it will be take a bit to locate this flight.

If I find anything in the archives, I'll post here.

It only took about an hour, but I have most of the audio I could find from both feeds edited down and I'm going to post it in the clips forum.

Okay, cool.  I just located the first check-in of NWA980 with departure on the "combined" feed archive, but I will stand down now that I read that you have all of it.
