Yes
In accordance with ANO Article 26 (4)(a) You do not need any other licence despite what you may have been told.
The FAA Cert must be valid, the FAA Medical must be valid and you must have had a Bienial Flight Review in the past two years.
ANO Article 26 (4)(a):
"in the case of injury or illness the suspension shall cease..."
I can't seem to find a relevant paragraph nearby but it is all a bunch of legalese to me...
I am in this exact situation myself, I have an FAA ticket with 55 hours total time (of which 6 in the UK). My father has just bought a Chevvron which definitely does not fall under the FAA "ultralight" classification, though it is registered as a British microlight. I am very eager to get a verifiable answer on whether or not I can fly it! (Hopefully an affirmative answer, of course).
