Actually, it becomes a pretty good airplane at about 3000 feet. Above that if something goes very wrong, the jumpers can all hop and pop. That leaves the pilot to fend for himself.
"Perfectly good" only happens in the past tense, when everyone is back on the ground safe. I'm not putting down skydiving. It's a heck of a kick.
