FAA Categorization Question

The FAA for a number of years has assessed foreign aeronautical authorities to see if they comply with ICAO standards. Category 1 countries are compliant and their air carriers may serve the United States. Category 2 countries are not compliant, and their air carriers are allowed to continue to serve under restrictions or banned from flying to US destinations.

I am wondering whether airlines whose aircraft are registered in a Category 2 country are permitted to operate in United States Airspace to overfly (not landing in the United States)?
