FAA CPL restriction musings

hi, based on the advice of various members here (thanks) i decided to head over to the US from the UK to gain my FAA CPL/IR.

can anyone offer me advice (or confirm my fears?) on somthing. due to a very minor issue with the Class 1 medical in the UK and the CAA acting as usual i had to take the FAA route to get my CPL ticket.

I know what i can do with 'N' reg aircraft in the UK but someone once told me that with an FAA CPL ticket i could also fly 'G' reg aircraft under Day VFR only conditions in the UK and still recieve potential payment for this. I have looked in the FAA's AIM but am still trying to decode an answer from that, i am reluctant to ask the CAA as i fear i will be nearing retirement before i get a deffinate answer from them.

any advice or hints would be great!

Thanks again
