Topcat commented on Northwest Air Pilot Misses Airport By 150 Miles

"@Eyebrows McGee (now with more baby!): Ground controllers actually are limited in the frequencies they can use to contact aircraft -nearby ground stations have different frequencies, so pilots are directed to which frequency they should change when they exit the airspace of a control. Aircraft can tune to any frequency, so the ground controller can give another pilot a list of the recent stations that plane should have been talking to in hopes that they just hadn't been handed-off correctly and are still tuned to an earlier station."
