So you are OK with ATC asking a private Aztec do do somejng that would be regarded as unsafe or illegal for a public transport Aztec?
The public private information and weight is just a sarcastic way of saying "unable".
My Q was not should a747 not be pushed out ahead of a 152 doing circuits- it was a subtle jibe that between two Aztecs both being "normal" the PubT doesn't have any higher priority
