Now we are out I guess it's back to that.
I never quite understood why the EU allowed N reg. aircraft with American crews to operate internal European cargo flights. (Fedex and UPS).
I vaguely seem to recall in the dim and distant past that when Bermuda 2 air bilateral was agreed in 1977 as part of the deal to allow the increased access of UK carriers to US cities and vice versa the Americans insisted that US cargo carriers had unlimited traffic rights ex the UK despite UK carriers not being able to fly within the USA.I suspect that this still applies today.
