Some of us are in countries that use the metric system. So "everyone" is quite a sweeping statement.

- Dalewyn 4y agoThe aviation industry uses feet for measuring altitude. Doesn't matter if you're a metric or imperial fanboi, the standard is feet for measuring altitude. Only a handful of countries use meters for measuring altitude, and as far as I'm aware they are feeling the pressure to reform to using feet for sake of consistency (read: safety). Besides, denoting both meters and feet like I did will guarantee everyone will understand one way or another.
- kwhitefoot 4y agoFair enough, except that we aren't talking about the aviation industry here.
- Dalewyn 4y agoExcept we are, airships are part of the aviation industry unless I'm missing something.
