I am inclined to think the same BEagle.
Clearly there are benefits from operating on the N register but these should be incorporated in to UK certification.(assuming we leave Europe)
UK GA tends to be over regulated in some areas but under regulated elsewhere.
We have this strange scenario where a foreign registered ex military aircraft or helicopter can be legally flown in the UK outside of CAA regulation.
