Dated 15 July 1971, this page outlines emergency 'radio out' procedures for fighter pilots who lost radio contact during a combat sortie - detailing rejoin methods, fuel and tanker contingencies, target-area holding, and return-to-base instrument procedures, plus additional steps for a combined radio-out-and-emergency scenario. Codified into precise checklists like this, such contingencies gave F-4 Phantom aircrews flying from Da Nang Air Base a clear course of action even under the most stressful conditions encountered over Vietnam and Laos.
