10% tolerance 5V regulator where the max output voltage is 5V and the minimum within tolerance is 4.5V. This equates to a load range of infinity ohms to 6.2 ohms.

If the voltage increases to 70V, the regulated output goes up to only 7.5V. What a regulator! However, the increased current will quickly damage the transistors.

Yeah, I suppose with only 2 transistors we are not looking at the reliability and precision of those dedicated IC's.

Why not use a zener?

You could, but i wanted to experiment with other ways of achieving the same result
