I think that to move to the N then fly it would cost a fair bit. You would need an FAA DAR to inspect the aeroplane and sign it over, plus the FAA annual etc...Minimum 3 grand (pounds) I'd expect plus expenses for the DAR including airline ticket if one is not based in RJ.

How much is this plane worth? Is it worth considering buying one in N America and taking it down to Panama ?

cursing at about 110 mph.
Given the difficulties so far shown, I'm not surprised

The plane is worth about $120K. The export permit, if I can figure out how to get it, will cost about $3K... so if I need to spend about GBP 3000 ($5000) on an inspection, it's probably worth the cost of dealing with the export permit.

I'm still working on this. Thanks for everyone's help and ideas!
