Final Approach
I was on FF once and they changed my call from "Archer" to "Cherokee" and I know I missed at least one of their attempts to contact me as I was listening for "Archer" on the radio and I don't remember what I was doing but was distracted at the moment, probably looking up something on a chart.
My question is, if I hadn't ever answered what happens? Maybe my radio had a problem or I didn't hear... or something like that. What will ATC do? Do they call search and rescue?
If I'm flying along and realize that somehow I missed ATC completely and I've got to be way out of the last sector I was talking to, what am I required to do? Am I required to call anyone or do I just squawk 1200 and forget about it?
All assuming I'm not in airspace requiring a clearance.
