    I am just curious, Does anybody know what countries' air traffic control systems use metric units for aircraft seperation? I believe Russia and China do. I can't remember whether EuroControl does or not. I should knows this but it has been a long time

    I believe Eurocontrol uses Imperial units, as all civilian aircrafts I know.

    Thank you. I guess former east bloc countries who joined the EU must have converted from metric to imperial units for aircraft separation
