re: #135 Dr Lizardo

Precisely. Among my students in the past have been commercial airline pilots and air traffic controllers here in the Czech Republic. What they call “American units of measurement” are the international standard.

As usual, Fox News displays its colossal ignorance.

She didn’t suggest that the difference in measurements is responsible. It was an example of what is different between the US and the rest of the world. It was an introduction to her question: maybe the pilots there are also trained differently? Granted, the analogy isn’t genius, but there was no suggestion that the metric system is responsible.
