Done.

No problem.  However, since the panel altimeter is always still in inches and I can't 
mentally divide by 33.864 in real time I've made it user settable and defaulted it to 
inches - you need to start flightgear with --prop:"/sim/atc/use-millibars"=true, or 
put it in your preferences.xml.  Note that even when set true, you'll still only get 
millibars in the UK, and eventually other countries that use it, not N America.

Once we've got a millibar altimeter for the UK I'll make it the default for the ATC 
here.

Cheers - Dave
