Thanks Whopity. I think there is a general incorrect assumption that as we're no longer in EASA that everything is therefore a 'non-EASA' aircraft by default.
Having a trawl through CS-STAN (CS-SC403a) pages 61/62 the rules are pretty much identical save for an increased weight allowance. The EASA policy makes it much clearer as to its application to portable equipment removed at the end of each flight.
I'm guessing this has been imported lock-stock into UK Legislation??
