How is the operation of N registered aircraft in Europe, within and into Europe?
What kind of approvals you need for different countries, if any?
How about in Russia?
Thanks.

Try to get a copy of Avition Business Week magazine issued in May 2011. The article called "Illegal chartering". This will give you a guidance of how to fly N-reg in Europe and how not to do it. Same applies by US gov. to Russia.

Maybe change the question to what is the best registration for an operation in Europe? :8
Are you N reg already? If not why do you want N reg and not M reg or a proper EU AOC?
I am not N-reg nor I want to be, at least for now... ;-)
Just wondering since I heard of people who moved their aircraft away from EU reg to N reg and are planning to operate between US and Europe/Russian and within Europe and are not expecting to have too many problems.
Can it really be so easy?

Nope the N loophole is being closed. So not easy unless you fly private and even than the checks in certain EU countries are increasing. I have not seen many aircraft moving from the EU reg to N reg rather the other way around and more to the EU flag of tax convenience: M reg :rolleyes:

EU flag of tax convenience: M reg
Whilst there are tax advantages to the M reg, that is by no means the only reason for using the registry. Customer service is second to none, legislation is simple to comply with, and helpful advice is a phone call away. Registering at 3am BST? Someone will be in the office. Outstanding.

You didn't do a search, did you Aslak? There is a plethora of information throughout this site about N-Reg ops in Europe.
Happy Hunting,

I believe it's called payback time ;-) .... now go check the new regulations.. loophole closed, or closing fast. No Eu ops in the USA ? fine ... then don't expect N reg ops here.

Could you elaborate a bit what specific CFR is prohibiting EU ops in the USA ? I thought it had more to do with EU maintenance requirements not always available in the US (or being too onerous to support) ?
Thanks, PP.
