What is the similarity between the recommended procedure for multiple aircraft communication failure and a ground radio station failure?

The procedure is similar: aircraft should adhere to the last ATC clearance received and acknowledged.

GM1 SERA.14083(c) Radio communication failure procedures

Q: What is the recommended procedure for multiple aircraft in the event of air-ground voice communication failure, especially when HF is the primary voice communication means?

Aircraft should adhere to the last ATC clearance received and acknowledged, similarly to the case of ground radio station failure.

Q: In situations where multiple aircraft are involved in a radio communication failure, what is the best way to assure safety of operations according to GM1 SERA.14083(c)?

Safety of operations is best assured when aircraft adhere to the last ATC clearance received and acknowledged, similarly to the case of ground radio station failure.

Q: Does the air-ground voice communication failure procedure in GM1 SERA.14083(c) address failures affecting multiple aircraft?

No, the air-ground voice communication failure procedures specifically address failure of communications affecting a single aircraft.

Q: When operating in an environment where high-frequency communications are used as primary means for voice communication, what should aircraft do in a multi-aircraft communication failure scenario?

Aircraft should adhere to the last ATC clearance received and acknowledged, similarly to the case of ground radio station failure.

RADIO COMMUNICATION FAILURE PROCEDURE — MULTIPLE AIRCRAFT

The air–ground voice communication failure procedures specifically address failure of communications affecting a single aircraft. In situations where multiple aircraft may be involved, especially when operating in an environment where high-frequency communications are used as primary means for voice communication, the safety of operations is best assured when aircraft adhere to the last ATC clearance received and acknowledged, similarly to the case of ground radio station failure.
