EASA and FAA rated pilots in Europe
Thead on the private forum regarding the forthcoming EASA regs and their proposal to keep 'N' reg aircraft operating in Europe although the crews would only be allowed to operate for up to 90 days at a time unless they have dual licences.
What are some of your thoughts on this? Presumably they would have to force Pilots flying aircraft on the Ise of Man register with validations to convert also?
May never come to anything, things change in Aviation so rapidly.

Article 22 of the Air Navigation (Isle of Man) Order 2007 only allows the DCA to validate licences "issued by an NAA". NAA is defined as a national avitaion authority for the puposes of EU Regulation 1592/2002. It therefore seems that only licences issued by EU/EEA member states can be validated. This would tie in with statements from the Isle of Man that the register would be run in accordance with European standards/requirements. So this may not be a problem for Isle of Man registered aircraft.

You could be right although I was under the impression that the Isle of Man most certainly do validate FAA licences. Who knows with any of this, it seems it's just one thing after another. I failed the JAR class one medical so a conversion at the moment is not an option for me but a career change probably is...

Airframe specific... Mmmmh, wouldn't that be totally illegal under EU laws ?
Reminds me of Luxembourg with "operator specific" validations and a judgement against these practices.
