Aztec or Seneca

have a reasonable amount of time on both. As had been said, the Seneca has the comkplexity of turbo-charging. With one or two up the Cof G is well forward and it may be desirable to carry ballast in the baggage bay. Because of this it can be difficult to land. The Aztec is nice to fly, although the type went out of production some years ago and the remaining aircraft are likely to be a little tired. Again, as has been said, the main thing to watch is the trim change when flap is lowered for the approach.
