Spoke to a Brit giving rides in a Harvard at Kissimmee after sun n fun last year and he said there were quite a few Brits with warbirds and exotica based in the Orlando area whi fly over for lengthy weekends and extended stays. If you can save £200 an hour on operating costs it makes sense to hop on a relatively cheap transatlantic flight to visit your 'toy' every few weeks.
He was talking Harvards, Mustangs, and up but I guess the argument though less pronounced also applies to smaller and cheaper kit.
The added advantage is that the weather is reasonably predictable.
Some of the guys have holiday homes (which they also rent out) others simply stay in cheapish hotels.
