TID EDIT
Back on topic:
My flight school didn't have an AIP and I'd ordered and paid for my Jep's so I didn't want to go out and buy an AIP (the Jep's book took about a week longer than the guy told me it would to arrive).
Lesson learned with that one, also learned a lesson about asking for a little bit of advice from the people here on PPRuNe.
I just wanted some info on the appeal process and ended up getting some of that as well as a heap of views on my personality or weaknesses. Water off a ducks back but I think I'll just stick with speaking to trusted colleagues for advice in the future. Pity as there are some really helpful people on here, as always it's the minority that ruin it for the rest.
After I've finished with the appeal process I'll put up a post offering some insight as to how it all went and what steps I end up taking.
Cheers for the help guys!
