Yeah, I've only ever heard "aitch" this side of the Pond my own self.
While we're at it, how maany of you pronounce "wh" as "hw"? For me the latter is literary and used only when reciting or singing, though I have heard it used naturally in the Appalachian South so I figure it must be an archaic English pronunciation (awaiting one of our pundits on this).
