I can't comment on User:62.49.16.208's actions with respect to molecular masses etc. but in the field of aviation, the power of a propeller-driven aircraft is always given in kilowatts when stating it in metric. Look at any European text (or, increasingly, British, given the increasing British popular use of metric). The use of kilowatts for engine power seems odd to Americans because it's normally only used for electrical things there, but it is a universal unit of power. It's important because English speakers outside the United States are increasingly familiar only with Metric measurements. —Morven 18:36, 18 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- Well, I responded on the other page before I read this, but yeah, other than the precision issue, converting an older plane's power rating to kW didn't seem useful to me in the way that converting it's length to meters would be. But, if that is more meaningful to some people, then it's worth doing. -TimeLord mbw 05:36, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)
