Default Lonely up there?

It appeared to be a long time since last hearing from ATC on a recent
flight, and sure enough, "27D can you still hear us?". I still could,
and they transferred me to a local approach control.

Anybody ever just call them up to see if they forgot about you? I did
that once over Toledo.


Sure. I've had a couple of flights at night where it was quiet,
completely quiet, for more than 5 minutes. That is about my limit
without talking to someone when IFR, at night, over hostile terrain. :-)
