Cyclic, how can another country issue an export for aircraft not under their wing, if it was Registered in France, fair enough, but it's not, regardless if it was manufactured there. I know tha FAA states this, but I think that needs updating!
We have talked with Airbus rep and the response was, don't hold your breath, the person who might be able to help in France is not back in until the 4th Dec, and yes, I said person and might, apparently there is only one person. Alternative is, Airbus subcontract this work to someone else which will take weeks just to get a quote, then we won't be happy with the costing. THIS is the response from Airbus!!!
They have never been asked for a statement of conformity before.

On a side note, I have now contacted EASA for clarification and I await their response, this has been going on for two months!
