N register and the UK

I suspect I am going to get some flak for asking this question.

In view of the Sala case is it time the CAA clamped down on UK based N registered aircraft operations by non resident and non American pilots ?

The majority of these are in the upper echelons of private light aircraft operations. Most countries in the world impose a time limit on how long a foreign based aircraft can operate internally. Many are pilots flying on a piggyback US licence.

Apart from pilot licensing and maintenance these aircraft are usually operating behind trusts therefore disguising the beneficial owners.

I have written to my MP to raise this matter in the Commons.
