I have been looking at the EASA website but cant find anything about restricting membership to only countries in the EU or EEA. Can anyone find anything definitive.
The only comment on membership I have found from the European Comission is that if the UK remains in EASA it will have to accept the jurisdiction of the ECJ, which the UK Government has already accepted they will do.
