Can I assume he is referring to the squark code 7600 for loss of 2 way communication between pilot and controller?

according our atc training:

when in VMC: land at the nearest suitable airport
when in IMC: fly according current flight plan to IAF descent in Hold at IAF and try to land within 30min after time over IAF oder EAT and use a instrument approach procedure...

so we expect the unexpected

Call the controller from your cell phone - or use the ones in the passengers seat backs?

UK procedures - based on those used throughout the European region - seem pretty clear. See AIP entry and, in particular ENR 1.1.3 para 4.2.2.3. I said that the UK procedures were based on the ones developed by Eurocontrol - as I recall clarifying the point about which procedures an IFR aircraft would follow was one of the amendments that the UK made.
