Reading this thread and thought of another one that happened to me in the late 90's.
Flying a single engine charter in a Piper Dakota from sydney to Lismore, and on approach into Lismore Eastern 1717 (I think... anyway a QF Dash 8) was catching me from behind.
Controller advised Eastern
BNE CN: Eastern 1717 Traffic your 11 0 clock 6 miles a DC3, 6500 for Lismore.
ESTN 1717: Ahh, looking...
ABQ (Me): Ahhh, centre, we are a PIPER Dakota, not a DOUGLAS dakota...
BNE CN: Right... Eastern 1717: Traffic half an Aztec 11 oclock 4 miles 5900...
ABQ (Me): Touche, Brisbane Centre...
