Can a NPPL fly a N reg aircraft he owns?
The answer is: yes. This question was asked of the FAA by the UK CAA, along with enquiring about all other sub-ICAO licences and ratings including the LAPL and IMC/IR(R). The FAA response from the Office of the Chief Counsel is here:

which led to the answer in the
NPPL FAQ here.
Can someone be taught NPPL on N reg using a EASA UK Instructor?
Dual training may be carried out since the UK instructor may exercise their privileges in accordance with 14 CFR 61.3, but the student would not be able to complete the solo flying on a N-reg since they are not a licence holder at that point nor do they hold the required FAA license or student pilot certificate.
