    For me it’s just not always understanding when imperial uses what unit 😆

    That’s why I asked @nick-carthew on the GB view. If the consensus is indeed that US imperial always want feet for altitude, sure thing 🙂

      I would say it's about time they get used to metric, like we all are used to English. Do something in return! 😉

        @Con-Hennekens sorry we are not adopting the kilometer, unless of course europe is prepared to start driving on the left/correct side of the road 😂

        if it is a binary choice, imperial or metric, then IMO the imperial choice should result in the altitude being in feet
        it makes no sense to choose imperial & then find the result is in meters

        the alternative is to make it a non-binary choice by allowing the units for speed, distance & altitude to be chosen independently but this probably will be at the expense of complicating the UI & backend code

          @Corjan-Meijerink The UK use whatever measurements suit us best 😊

          In the UK feet and inches are used for height measurements and yards and miles are used for distance.

          The US use feet and inches for height and feet and miles for distance.

                  It would be best if the whole world would embrace the Metric system, much easier in every way. Especially for programmers 🙂

                    @ErikMatthezing, they don't know it yet, but they will in the end 😉
                    You see that most new technical fields metric is the norm already in the US also.
                    UK I don't know really, maybe they are more stubborn then others 😉
