N Reg in the UK
Happy for substantiated fact based answers or total guesses. Approximately how many N reg aircraft do you think are currently based in the UK?

If anyone knows a member of LAAS aviation there group has an online list which you used to be able to look at, it is now password restricted to members.

The last version of the LAAS aviation list which was publicly available (in 2016) contains 1007 N-registered aircraft, although this covers UK and Ireland in full and also includes many non-airworthy aircraft. No ownership details were disclosed.

The LAAS on-line list currently records 987 N-reg aircraft, but as horatio_b correctly states, this includes Ireland based aircraft and those in museums etc.
The ownership details including registered addresses of all N-reg aircraft are freely available on the FAA "N-Number" website. |

And all on flags of convenience, circumventing proper regulation, and contributing to the problem, not the solution.

Because international air law was set up to allow international transit, not to enable people to choose the cheapest, lowest common denominator option, and keep out of their regulators’ sight by flagging light aeroplanes out. The FAA are very clear that they don’t have, never will have, and don’t want to have, the resources to monitor N-reg light aircraft overseas.

As it should be. Data protection and all that.

On a slightly different topic, would anyone like to take a guess at how much of a market is there for FAA flight training in Europe - both initial, and recurrent (flight review, IPC) ? |

Perhaps EASA should make it a bit easier to operate light aircraft in Europe then?
Many uninsured cars are removed from British roads every day. Any parallels there? |

Funny how that “lowest common denominator” has as good a safety record as the platinum plated over the top UK and European regulatory regime......
maybe the CAA will adopt them if we end up leaving EASA after brexit EASA hasnt had that good safety record up to now |
