Operating a Foreign homebuilt in the UK
Does anyone know what the rules are for operating an aircraft on the Swedish Homebuilt register in the UK?
This would be a Giles 202 composite aircraft which is not 'approved' by the PFA. It was also built as a certified aircraft by CAP as the CAP222.
There is already a homebuilt Giles 202 flying on the Swedish register and that was imported from the US as an EAA aircraft.
I am thinking of doing the same but want to understand any Gotchas beforehand. I am thinking of importing the A/C from the US to Sweden and putting it on the Swedish register. I would then operate it in the UK but get the annuals etc done in Sweden ( this is a paperwork exercise so the aircraft could stay in the UK).
Many thanks for helpful answers
