From: Boldly going where no split infinitive has gone before..
I am not trying to start a big debate, but when did 2 or 3 or even 4 digits numbers get confusing? We all have been doing this for years, is it really that complicated. Or it it because we are all tired? Just my thoughts. Thanks
So, you're saying that in a busy, congested ATC environment, having EK 927, EK 97, and EK 9927 on frequency at the same time could not POSSIBLY lead to confusion and mistakes unless someone was being unprofessional?

Well, excuse our low standards, but we employed the last three superheroes some years ago, and have had to settle for fallible Human Beings both in the Aircraft and at ATC stations since then....
