Yes, and material thicknesses are given in thousandths of an inch (.001"). Linear dimensions are given in inches plus decimals, for example 2.18", 326.54", etc.
Very informative video. I also work in aeronautics, specifically in turbine engines, but in front of a computer so this is mostly unknown to me. Thank you for sharing it. I am also fascinated by the ease you can switch between 32nds and 64ths an decimal inches. I understand imperial but I am just used to metric.
Thank you very much. I appreciate your positive feedback. I'm sure your side of the industry is fascinating too, since you see a lot of the "behind the scenes" that go into a turbine engine. Regarding the imperial units, yes, it's a bit of mental gymnastics when you are not used to them, but like anything else, it's not too bad once you get the hang of it. Although, decimal inches are much easier to deal with, and in my opinion, metric would be ideal.
Hello ANUP SAHU, could you please elaborate on what you don't understand? This video was meant to be an answer to a request from past comments about common aviation tools.
