Why Mr Kroak, may I ask, are you shy about putting a mention on your profile that you do fly turboprop?

Fantom is right. The radio fail procedures, at least in the west, are all laid down clearly and a thread
about it is at best waste of band- width and at worst waffle.

My pilot friends tell me that where they fly they all have every tower and ATC centre's phone number in their mobile phones.

Inevitable? Evidently there was a story going around about a Fokker instructor once in the company's training base at Schiphol who would spread his arms wide in response to a question
of the 'what if' variety and say with his strong Dutch accent -

'It will never happen.'
