A DHC8 FLC FAILS TO FOLLOW THE AIRWAY AS DEPICTED ON THEIR CHART AND ARE UNAWARE OF THE ZNY CTLR'S ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT THEM WHILE OFF THE FILED RTE 13 MI SE OF LRP; PA.

Narrative

WE WERE SCHEDULED TO DO FLT FROM UNV TO PHL. WE DEPARTED UNV ON NOV/XA/00. OUR RTE WAS DIRECT TO RASHE INTXN; V276 RAV; V170 TO V210 BUNTS; DIRECT TO PHL. I WAS THE PF. WE TOOK OFF FROM UNV AND CONTACTED ZNY. CTR CLRED US DIRECT TO RAVINE. WE THEN CLBED UP TO 15000 FT MSL AND PROCEEDED ON COURSE. THE AIRPLANE HAD NO RNAV; SO I WAS NAVING AND USING THE AUTOPLT. ONCE AT CRUISE; THE FO AND I BEGAN A GENERAL CONVERSATION AS I WAS FLYING THE RTE. AFTER RAVINE; I TURNED OUTBOUND ON V170 WHICH IS THE 136 DEG RADIAL. THERE WERE SOME COMS OVER THE RADIO; BUT CTR DID NOT SEEM TOO BUSY AT THE TIME. AS WE APCHED BUNTS INTXN; I HAD NOT HEARD A CLRNC FROM CTR AND ASKED THE FO TO ASK WHAT HDG WE SHOULD HEAD AFTER THAT INTXN. CTR PROCEEDED TO TELL US TO TURN TO A 270 DEG HDG. THE CTLR; IN A VERY AGITATED VOICE; ASKED US WHERE WE HAD BEEN. HE TOLD US WE HAD MISSED SEVERAL CALLS FROM HIM. HE ALSO TOLD US HE HAD ANOTHER ACFT TRY TO CALL US AS WELL AS OUR COMPANY. I FIND IT VERY UNUSUAL THAT THE FO AND I EACH MISSED SEVERAL RADIO CALLS. OUR COMPANY ALSO NEVER REACHED US ON OUR ATS CALL AND WE WERE ABOUT 35 MI AWAY FROM OUR HEADQUARTERS. THEN CTR ASKED US WHAT RTE WE WERE FOLLOWING BECAUSE WE WERE NOT ON V170. I LOOKED AT THE ENRTE CHART AND REALIZED I HAD MISSED THE TURN AT BOYER INTXN. I EXPLAINED TO THE CTLR WHAT HAD HAPPENED; BUT HE DID NOT SEEM INTERESTED. I APOLOGIZED FOR THE MISTAKE; BUT HE CONTINUED TO SOUND VERY ANGRY AS HE VECTORED US AROUND SO HE COULD HAND US OFF TO PHL APCH. AFTER LNDG IN PHL; THE FO AND I DISCUSSED WHAT HAD HAPPENED. NEITHER ONE OF US HAD HEARD ANY CALLS FOR US PRIOR TO US ASKING FOR A HDG. WE WONDERED IF THE CTLR WAS USING THE WRONG CALL SIGN OR FLT NUMBER AND WE NEVER CAUGHT IT. WE ALSO REALIZED THAT WE EACH MISSED THE TURN ON THE RTE.
