Q151 You are the pilot of an aircraft following an IFR flight plan. You suffer a communication failure but are able to maintain VMC. As per the pink pages you shall squawk 7600 and:

Continue to your destination maintaining VMC, and make a visual approach.

Switch to VFR and continue your flight taking care to remain clear of controlled airspace.

Continue in VMC, land at the nearest suitable airfield and inform ATS via the most expeditious route.

Continue, controllers will now be aware of your issue and move other aircraft out of your way.

Correct!

Incorrect!

Q152 You suffer a communications failure in IMC and are uncertain of regaining VMC anytime soon. According to the Pink Pages you must:

Squawk 7600, descend out of controlled airspace and land at the nearest suitable aerodrome.

Squawk 7600 and continue to fly the published flight plan.

Squawk 7600 and enter an en-route hold.

Squawk 7600 and turn back to last location VMC conditions were known.

Correct!

Incorrect!
