From: "ArmstrongJackson" I don't really understand all the tax stuff in this message, and I'll probably ask my friends working at taxfyle.com (https://taxfyle.com/) to make some sense of this post for me. They are great at understanding taxes, and they'll do this job for me in an instant.

It is almost brand new, undamaged and has flown for only 65 hours. It is located in Portugal. My friend wants 75 000 for it. That makes $85 000. The catch: it is registered as a microlight in Portugal. That means that it can only be registered as a microlight in any other EASA countries, as EASA does not allow any change of categories nowadays. As its registration certificate states a MTOW of 450 kg (1000 lbs) it can only be flown solo and with little fuel if it is to be registered in any other EASA member state. I suppose that, if registered in the United States, for example, it can be registered as a light sport aircraft. Is that not so? Does anyone know whether that is the case? If so, if you know anyone who would be interested in an almost brand new SportCruiser for around $85 000 please let me know. I can supply photos and documents. Thanks.

Your best bet is to contact a FSDO in the USA. One almost certainly viable option would be to register it as 'experimental exhibition' and set MTOW at a more reasonable number (whatever Piper used for US registered versions). The EE flight operation restrictions are a bit different, but in practical terms, not really any more restrictive than 'experimental homebuilt' registration. If all the parameters meet the requirements for sport pilot operation, I believe that it could be flown by a sport pilot. Annuals would have to be done by, at minimum, an A&P holder; no 'repairman's certificate for EE.
