Can anyone point me towards a site similar to G-INFO that covers the new I.O.M registrations.

I notice in the I.O.M Registry, Checklist for registering aircraft,

Checklist for Registering Aircraft in the Isle of Man
1. Aircraft registered in the Isle of Man are only for private and corporate use, not commercial air transport or aerial work.

... so basically they can only be used for personal use and not for hiring. Is this the reason, maybe, that some aircraft are reverting back to UK registrations. Regards Beemer.

Yeah, very likely. I know of one UK-based owner who wanted to put his aircraft onto the Manx register, but also wanted to split the ownership, which put it into the commercial category, as the Manx authorities saw it. In the end, he opted for Bermuda.
