The Sea Harrier with the USMC pilot landed non radio at Farnborough having descended through the LTMA and through one of the busiest Heathrow SIDs. Fortunately he put the 'radio fail' squawk on so the controllers at TC were able to keep their traffic away as his intentions were unknown to them.(they kept phoning us and asking what it was though!)
By the time the other pilot arrived to fly it out, the radio had made a miraculous recovery.
