Nick, an N-registered aircraft is one registered in the USA under FAA rules.
Many people choose to go down this route as it cuts through a lot of the bureaucracy associated with operating on the G-(UK CAA) register.
The DfT have been talking about restricting the use of flags of convenience in aircraft based within the UK but their latest proposal was met with significant resistance and has been shelved for the forseeable future.
