If he has permission of the EA licensing authority, then he is OK. Some
licensing authorities will allow reciprocal operating or issue a local
licence to M3s.
If he hasn't obtained permission, he is probably breaching the EA rules
(which I don't know). I've not heard of it happening in EA land but I know a
(former) M3 who obtained permission to operate in Germany and another who
got a temp reciprocal licence. in Barbados on the strength of his M3 call
and 2E pass slip.
Interestingly, they weren't breaching UK rules.
The CEPT rules "automatically permit" reciprocal operating for the CEPT
recognised licences. They do not prevent local licensing authorities from
recognising other licences.
