It's hardly an unexpected direction, considering there's a NOTAM
instructing you to do exactly that: In an emergency, one can disregard NOTAMs. And if there are clouds, you'd be dodging clouds as you try to make your exit. The flight would look erratic and would attract the attention of big fast airplanes with guns and missles. I would consider a communications failure in the ADIZ to be a DIRE EMERGENCY and would take what steps I thought prudent to stay alive. If there's an airport below me, I'm probably not going to futz with trying to thread my way among some cloud for twenty minutes to exit the ADIZ just because of a NOTAM. It would not be prudent to assume that the fighters that are scrambled won't pick me to make an example of that day. Outside the ADIZ, a non-event. But the ADIZ can become a war zone in an instant. It's a stupid construct, it has to go (along with the FRZ), but until it does, aviators are depending on everything going right. We've been lucky so far. But just lucky.
