I grew up in metric, but obviously comfortably use feet and knots in my flying. However, you often hear in t he UK and the US "I can't think in metres" and how they can't gage it. Exactly the same problem I have in feet - I can't gage a distance in it without first doing the conversion from meters.
But there's a simple solution for you guys and everyone could use meters tomorrow in the old "Farenheit"-belt of the world; Because you can all use yards, right? A yard is a meter!
