Well here goes an appeal. I'm going to write to the CAA once I have my IMC ticket added to my license. Haven't tried an appeal yet and I've got nothing to lose! I was down at the city Uni and did the PAPI test and passed. Even though it's not "an acceptable means of compliance" it's still evidence in my favour. In my letter I'm also going to stress the fact that when I've had lessons at night (IMC training) I've correctly identified colours and have landed safely using the PAPI system! Even my instructor is pissed off with the system in place right now. So what the hell, as my AME said, "nothing ventured, nothing gained!"
I'll keep everyone posted with what the outcome is. Fingers crossed...
