Flightstar Microlight?

Does anyone know if the Flightstar microlight is on the pfa register or any flying in the UK? If not, is it possible to import it, build it and then register it?

It looks like a realy nice airplane. I was looking at the XAIR but it does not have a very good useful load whereas the flightstar does?
