British, or U.S.?

Game Composites lists their location as Bentonville, AR, USA (see their website). I remember reading an article (AOPA Flight magazine) where the location came before the flight testing, so I think the GB1 should list national origin as "United States".

NOTE: EASA is supposedly easier than the FAA to work with for certification, hence the reason EASA certification happened first. That was also described as a business decision in the above referenced AOPA article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.35.209.251 (talk) 05:09, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for bringing this up. You are quite right it is being built in the US, although its nationality is a bit more complex, designed by a German in the UK. I have updated the article from the refs, so see what you think of the result. - Ahunt (talk) 13:47, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
