The cockpit instruments are in the appropriate system of units, but unfortunately the HUD units cannot be changed (I think). Maybe if we have SOS one day we can add civilized units in the hud. In the meantime we are stuck with Imperialistic crap

And oh yeah - OpenPlane uses legacy units as well. I understand most US/UK historical data uses them. But it must be inconvenient when dealing with other nations planes. Well not such a big deal, Excel has nice conversion functions that deals with fathoms, yards and all the exotic stuff.

you mean you don't want historical meassurements in a historical flight sim??? What will we come to next, using HUDS to fly? heh

Oh, no I don't know anyway to change it either, thinks it's code set.

Well, I for my part miss the cubic-thumb's-width, hog's-heads, and maybe Klafter for pre-WWI prussian aircraft ;-)

Working with decimal units where 100cm are 1 meter would be quite convenient.
