Feng Shui ... that's a good one. It is probably the case in that part of the world
The reason I asked, though, is that I fly the 777 and she is equipped with a meter function switch. When flying in a metric altimeter region, you press that switch and voilą, the PFD shows you the levels/altitudes in meters without you having to use a table for conversion.
Some pilots insist, however, in setting the altitude in feet in the altitude window of the mode control panel; the altitude or level converted from the table and ignoring the meter function.
I was wondering what presentation shows up in the controller's screen attached to the xponder code and other info.
Thanks anyway
