Beyond Frustrated! Regulations in the EU

Greetings all!

I have been trying to find any set of rules that can be applied to a large cabin (Gulfstream/Global/Falcon) part 91 (Private/Non commercial) US operation.

EU OPS-1 states it is applicable to Commercial Air Transportation by Aeroplane, thus (in my mind) is not applicable to the operation/aircraft mentioned above. EU NCC is not as thorough as EU OPS-1.

Typical problem - EFVS (EVS) operations in the EU. EU OPS-1 addresses it, however, EU NCC does not. Is a large Cabin Part 91 considered commercial transportation? Does each individual state (nation) have the right to write their own rules in addition to the ones published by EASA.

Increasingly, the Private operator in the EU is being asked for authorizations form the state of registry for things such as GNSS approaches, GNNS Approaches with LPV or LNAV/VNAV, or EFVS, etc. Part 91 operators in the US do not have these authorizations, and in some cases there is no vehicle available to the operator to get one.

Incredibly frustrating to find guidance on how to find guidance.

HELP!!!!!

Thank you in advance!

John
