This happens if you load a plane that is "VFR". In X-plane, the only way to fail your nav radios is to also fail your comm radios. Doing this is the only way that FSE can ensure that a plane is VFR only.

Weren't the com and nav radio failures separated in an XP update for this purpose (think it had something to do with Keith)? Or is that going to be in 10.40 (or not at all)?

I think they were implemented in a recent beta, however, my plugin code might need to be updated to take advantage of the new failures, along with the FSE plugin. I have to look into it to find out if that's the case, though, as I don't recall exactly what Austin changed in the core code and what new datarefs he introduced.

I believe a couple datarefs were added (
http://www.xsquawkbox.net/xpsdk/docs/DataRefs.html):
acf_struct....int[10].....700-1004..no....Pointers..........Pointers to the individual aircraft structures.
rel_nav1.........int..........740+.......yes...failure_enum....Nav-1 radio
rel_nav2.........int..........740+ ......yes...failure_enum....Nav-2 radio
rel_com1.........int.........1040+......yes...failure_enum....Com-1 radio
rel_com2.........int.........1040+......yes....failure_enum...Com-2 radio
