    Triple 4, double charlie - does it annoy you?

    Heard at one airport someone using Cessna Triple 7... ATC didn't seem to mind, and to think about, there was definitely no confusion on who was communicating.

    Flying into HHR

    Can't answer your question, but were you wing to wing with a A380 by chance? There were a couple of times when going in there, there would be some big boys (and girls) going into the LAX South Complex off the right wing. That was one of the practice airports when I did the instrument rating...
