Hi,
I've been reading the charts and I've noticed that they say "contact socal approach on ###" or somewhere else it might say "Los Angeles Center is the controlling agency", etc etc. What I wanted to know was what is the difference between SOCAL TRACON and Los Angeles Center. I'm assuming when they refer to "socal" on the charts, that's SOCAL TRACON and when they refer to Los Angeles Center, that's an ARTCC? Just trying to understand the differentiation between the two..

thanks!
Mike
