Anyway, you can fly in any ICAO country with your N-registered aircraft,

That is what I thought. Thanks for confirming it.

by the way, I was assuming that your FAA certificate is a private or higher
(I don't think it would work with a recreational or sport pilot
certificate, the same way that some other countries have their own local
licenses/ratings that are not recognized by ICAO; for instance like the
UK 'IMC rating' and some national licenses which are not valid outside of
the country; but then, in the case of the British things, it is spelled
out in the license itself)
