As an American who doesn't understand the metric system, I assume that windspeed measured in "kts" is "kila-toots per second. 120 kts is 120 times the velocity of one fart, right?
Howstuffworks.com says a fart travels at 7 miles per hour, so 120 kts would be 840,000 mph, which seems like it must not be correct.
So "kts" must be 1/1000th of a fart, meaning 120 kts would be 0.84 miles per hour? That doesn't seem like a very useful unit of measure, tbh.
