Star Wars X-Wing series - Run That Name by Ne Again?
Hobbie's last name is inconsistently spelled throughout- it it Derek Klivian, but is spelled "Klivan" in the first four books.
In "SoA", he introduces himself to a reporter, and adds, "I'll get back to you on the name- lots of people misspell it.", thus turning a slipup into an easter egg.
Yes - I have noticed this whilst reading the other books and thought it was very clever how they worked it into SoA

I've also noticed that in the 1st book: Rogue Squadron, the Gand pilot Ooryl Qrygg's name is sometimes spelled 'Qrygg' and then other times 'Qyrgg'
Actually I'm not sure if I've spelt it right...

Leave it to Alston to indeed turn that slip up into an "easter egg"!
