Odd landing approval - Low Priority

When the "tower" directed me to land on pad 33 he actually directed me to landing pad "double three three".

Like I mentioned in the title, imo this is low priority, but still thought you should know.

I also stumbled upon this, but maybe all is intended. "Thirtythree" would one suggest that there are 33 landing pads. But three-three could also be code for the third pad in the third line of pads. Are there more than 12 pads in the stations? I am too lazy to check this now but in that case there would be 4 lines with 3 pads each. Just like room 404 is 4th room on the 4th floor in hotels and not the 404th room :)

Hi Stanley85, you may have misread my post; I don't have a problem with the operator saying "three three" it's the "double" that comes before that seems out of place. "Double three three" to me would indicate pad 333, which is not where I am being directed. Either "...pad three three." or "...pad double three." would make sense to me.

If, instead, I am not understanding you please elaborate.

Cheers!
