The object returned by aidsEst contains an element with name "est", which is 
the object returned by systemfit (see documentation of aidsEst). Unfortunately, 
I do not know what you need to do the test. I suggest that you take a look at 
the documentation of systemfit and/or the corresponding JSS paper [1]. For 
instance, you could obtain the residuals with
R> residuals( aidsEstResult$est )
where "aidsEstResult" is the object returned by aidsEst.
Please let me know if you have any further questions or if you found out how 
to do the test. In the latter case, I suggest that you or I add a method, a 
wrapper function, or a hint in the documentation of the micEcon and/or the 
systemfit package. Both packages are developed on R-Forge.
