The Lear 25 was 42 years old.. the capt. according to news reports here this morning was 78! .. Doesn''t mean that either was a factor but I would think it maybe a unique combination.

I've flown in an older aircraft (early Socata Ralleye) with an octogenarian pilot, and survived just fine... :}
The early Lears do not have a great safety record though.

According to the press, and I know they mostly get it wrong, but He also had a Temp certificate with VFR restrictions on both the Lear and HS125, is there a VFR restriction for these aeroplanes?
