You ring an ARO and ask them for a brief (if you can find one)

You ring the AIS Duty Officer on 020 8750 3773 (H24) and ask him.
What you don't do if you want to stay within the law and avoid a prosecution under Part 10 of the ANO is to go flying without checking first.
All good options (and so good in fact I've quoted it back so everyone can refer to it!) My suggestion of linking AIS logins to licence val;idation was said tongue in cheek aimed at seeing if anyone would bite. Nice to see a response with some good suggestions.
