IMHO, when learning about something that is not mainstream anymore, it is much more effective with a few crucial pointers from someone with the experience, then spend a week just web searching aimlessly.

That sounds like a plan. I knew nothing when I encountered my first damaged disk. I decided to have a go at fixing it and since then I've notched up many more successes than failures. There is some useful information online, especially relating to Amiga floppy disks, and a few very capable if not very well documented tools avaliable as well.
I'll sort you out some links when I've finished with this disk.
I've now mapped just over half the blocks and file chains of the Aztec C v3.6a Disk 3 WIP3 image. No problems so far, but no free blocks either.
On the other hand, I haven't reached the damaged area of the disk yet.
