''The CAA's role is to administer the Isle of Man Aircraft Registry and regulate the Isle of Man Airport"

See that word Administer. They have no AUTHORITY to regulate the operators on the Rock.

Now, you think what you want over there in BFPO but you're giving the Manx ADIMISTRATION more AUTHORITY than they've got.
'The CAA's role is to administer the Isle of Man Aircraft Registry and regulate the Isle of Man Airport. The CAA is responsible for ensuring aviation legislation in the Isle of Man meets International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) Standards and Recommended Practices and other relevant European aviation standards.'
It's an administration, not an authority apart from in relation to Manx registered aircraft.

So according to Tinwald's logic the Federal Aviation Administration has no authority or regulatory powers in the US!
