Lack of a medical does not render the license invalid, it simply prevents you from exercising the license privileges (Art 72B of the ANO).
Art 247 deals with extra-territorial effect of the Order and makes it clear that outside the UK it relates to flights by UK registered a/c and the crew thereof.
If the FAA is happy to accept an FAA medical to fly an N Reg in FAA land and outside of the jurisdiction of UK law and the UK courts then precisely what law is being broken?
