Recreational yes, depending on it for transportation no as it’s too limiting with weather conditions.
Get a Cheyenne or a KingAir.
Actually, I read your post extremely well. Not sure why you would suggest otherwise.
You said “
With the owners having the disposable income for racing makes you wonder why they fly such an old airframe. Last Aztec was built in ‘78.” which is a statement to not buy an aircraft exclusively based on age.
If you were suggesting that an aircraft be purchased based on capability in your earlier post, it would have made sense to talk about airframe capability rather than just airframe age.
That being said, I see the pilot was in his twenties, so experience may be an issue. Perhaps he was building up experience(and enjoying doing so) toward an eventual Cheyenne or King Air aircraft.
