Title should be nmi
- jordanb 2y agoI do a lot of navigation and have never seen nautical miles abbreviated as "nmi."
- lxgr 2y agoI bet not everybody on here does, so picking the unambiguous unit sign would definitely avoid some double-takes.
- barbazoo 2y agoThe unit of "nm" is common among pilots but yeah technically it should be "NM".
- yongjik 2y agoNGL, two locations 3600 non-maskable interrupts apart would have been a much more interesting story.
- astrange 2y agoIt's like doing the Kessel run in less than twelve parsecs.
- buildsjets 2y agoMaybe that is true in your industry. It is not true in my industry. NM is the legally accepted abbreviation for nautical miles when used in the context of aircraft operations.
- joemi 2y agoStill, either "nmi" or "NM" would be better than the current and less correct "nm", even if "nm" is what's used in the article.
