Hello people! What have you heard about the opt-out status allowing FAA license holders based in Europe to continue flying N-registered aircraft in EASA airspace? According to my fellow flight club members, the whole opt-out system is being phased out on June 2022, but I have seen neither an official EASA doc on the matter nor a comment from the various European AOPAs or the US AOPA, for that matter.
Current status is every country on board for 2021 will be on board until 6/2022, but EASA is known for publishing their stats quite late, last time around the 2019-2021 spreadsheet was published in 3Q 2019 even though the opt-out had been in force since June and agreed upon since Q1 2019… so I’m quite uncertain, and asking EASA will probably elicit an answer in late 2024, if that.
