We will never drop metric units as it¡¯s the basis of SI units International measuring standards. ?
It¡¯s a real pity sticking with older imperial. ?What was worse was the British version of imperial it was so confusing. ?
So much easier with metric. ?But fine screws, threads is where it kinda doesn¡¯t work as well as imperial. ?When we changed to metric 1/2¡± bolt became a 12.7mm haha. Finally we are fully metric world wide except ICAO ¡aka Aircraft altitude feet/knots etc?
I went from French Mirage metric to F18 imperial. ?It was a step back in tools. ?A real PITA.?
I asked a Lorel rep when will USA go metric¡.he said never! ? He was right. !
