Aviation Unit Converter

Convert between common aviation units for fuel, distance, speed, and more.

Unit Conversion in Aviation

Aviation uses a mix of units (knots, miles, kilometers, liters, gallons, etc.) depending on the region and aircraft. Accurate conversion is critical for flight planning and safety.

Common Factors

1 NM = 1.852 km. 1 US Gal (AvGas 100LL) ≈ 6 lbs (2.72 kg). 1 inHg = 33.86 hPa. C = (F - 32) * 5/9.

Fuel Criticality

Never confuse liters with gallons or pounds with kilograms when refueling. Fuel exhaustion accidents often stem from unit calculation errors.
