You can register it in the UK on a permit if you build it yourself (from a kit). The LAA have approved it and there is at least one on the UK register.

jxc,

Have a look at John Broomhall's site - he built one:

I saw it when he flew it from Edmonton to a glider camp at Cowley (580 nm 12.5 hours elapsed time) http://www.telusplanet.net/public/jbrmhall/adventure/page7.html.

A marathon effort - this is NOT a cross-country aircraft, but great looking. It looks like the real thing in the sky.

Edited to a URL to his other stories, because of a broken link in John's home page:
