In the YouTube video, we show a technique for converting between US and Metric units of measure, or the reverse. Flightplan supports both US Imperial (feet) and Metric (meters) for altitude, so this functionality can also be used as an easy Metric to US (or vice versa) converter.

This flight plan is actually one of the middle legs of a 30 leg trip from Mt Hood, Oregon to Anchorage, Alaska through British Columbia, Yukon Territory and Alaska, including parts of Glacier Bay Nat’l Park.
