OK, knots it will be (but I know who to blame when my fingers fall off from typing those 3 extra letters;-). The K prefix is interesting for US. In radio, W is the prefix for East of the Mississippi and K is west.
Joe McCary Aeolus II West River, MD [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Shugarts I think most people would recognize "Kn" in boating, but knots is usually "KT" in aviation, For any U.S. airport, type a "K" and the three-letter identifier you are used to. (Somehow, the "K" here stands for "United States.")
