Except no one in aviation uses kilometers or hour so your comment is 100% useless.

I'm aware, I switched it to kmh for easier understanding for the person who I was replying to bud.

It's not like he's navigating with these numbers. He's just explaining the concept of relative wind, so whether he uses KTS, KPH or MPH it's all the same. He could use DPF (decades per furlong) if he wants to.

Hah, do you even metric?

Not all of us here are familiar with knots, so kilometres per hour is a useful unit. Especially when talking about wind speed.

Get over it. If you can't figure it out then you don't need to be in aviation. And yes, I use Celsius every day because that's what's used in aviation.

Do you use feet or metres for altitude?

[–]deHavillandDash8Q400Aerospace Engineering Student, FAA Private Pilot ASEL Instrument 1ポイント2ポイント  (13子コメント)

See my flair? Take a guess.

I'm not a pilot so I don't know. I'll guess that you're from the US which means that you use feet, which in turn means that you can't even metric.

[–]deHavillandDash8Q400Aerospace Engineering Student, FAA Private Pilot ASEL Instrument -1ポイント0ポイント  (11子コメント)

We use feet in aviation as well. I can into metric by the way. Unfortunately, meters are a retarded, useless unwieldy and awkward unit of measurement. KM? Sure, alright for physical activities, but meters? Come on.

[–]NowWTFSeriously 0ポイント1ポイント  (10子コメント)

You realise that meters and kilometers are directly related? That's why majority of the developed world uses SI units.

We're flying at 10 000 meters? Cool, that's 10 kilometers.

Flying at 10 000 feet? Tell me, how many miles is that?

[–]deHavillandDash8Q400Aerospace Engineering Student, FAA Private Pilot ASEL Instrument 1ポイント2ポイント  (9子コメント)

I understand that, but that doesn't magically make it a unit of any useful size. 10,000 ft is slightly less than 2 miles. But we don't measure altitude in miles so that isn't important.

[–]NowWTFSeriously -1ポイント0ポイント  (8子コメント)

You measure distance in miles, altitude in feet and speed in knots. Does that make sense to you? None of those units is related to any other in any meaningful way.

Or would it make more sense to measure altitude in meters, distance in kilometers and speed in kilometers per hour?
