Please do not take this personally
But WHY does the USA still use mph. In aviation
Is it universal in USA.

Phil,
Don't over-think this. It is nothing more than human nature and the
resistance to change. We ( I and other old people) grew up and were
educated in "inches", "feet", "yards", "miles", and the like and refuse
to change. We have a mental image of measurement that is too difficult
to re-program. I'm still not sure if I'm hot or cold when I hear the
temperature in Celsius. As the young pilots trained in knots mature
through the ranks it will change. I for one however will be buried in a
grave depth measured in feet or placed in an urn measured in cubic inches.
