SIUYA,
I, for one, agree entirely with your comments.
I have been involved with a number of arrangements where regulatory authority has been transferred, these were all arrangements between FAA and UK CAA.
The one thing that usually applies is that the tech. crews have to have a license commensurate with the state of registration. When Qantas operated N- aircraft on its AOC, we all had to have FAA ATRs or CPLs. Before any of you start jumping up and down, CASA regularly issues appropriate licenses and ratings against foreign licenses, as an administrative exercise, as those around in '89 will well remember.
Tootle pip!!
