'PM' what you say is true to some degree but even a 10000 hr airframe should have engines suitable for the task as in not 10000 hrs old.
Fair point Wally, I guess a Baron with two new IO 550s would be ok
It boils down to choice at the end of the day, you either am happy to accept the risks or you aren't, the latter for me:-0)
Again very truthfull. Flying (like driving) involves a risk. Personally I would have no problem flying a 208/TBM/PC-12 etc as I wouldn't have a problem in a B200 either (you don't have a spare B350 around do you?). At the end of the day we are all (mostly) commercial pilots, and are hopefully trained to do the best for the machine we are flying at the current time.
