Smile N-registered helicopters in Europe

Hi all!

After spending some time in the states doing my helicopter education, and luckily enough been working as a CFI to gain some hours, I'm now back in Europe for my JAA-conversion.

I've been noticing alot of american registered helicopters on different aviation photo sites here in Europe. I wonder why there is so many of them?

The way I understand it you can excersise your FAA priviliges, depending on your license of course, in Europe as long as you fly a N-registered aircraft. Anyone know if this is correct?

Most of the ones I see seem to be on private hands, is there no restrictions on owning a N-registered helicopter in Europe and flying it on a FAA PPL-H?

regards,

Vidar
