Hi,
I don't know if it's an issue, butnull here is how my ASI looks like (metric, english, native, imperial setting doesn't matter).
Is this correct ?

Because it doesn't look like that on Wags' video.

 

Cheers

On the latest patch, if you use the Default cockpit in the special options (Cyrillic cockpit) with Metric as your units, you'll get this TAS indicator:

If you use the English cockpit with Imperial units, you'll get this TAS indicator:

The English, Metric TAS indicator is confusing . The big needle is Mach and the little needle is Knots?  or the other way around?

Thick is Mach. Thin is TAS.

Yes, but in knots. It should be metric if the cockpit is set to metric.

I tested the TAS indicator on English,Imperial and after take off It was 650 ish knots for Mach 1  at tree level.

Tested the  English, Metric and it was over Mach 1.2 at 650 knots.  Same mission and airfield. Identical conditions. 

  English metric is bugged.   I really hope they give us option to fly with English cockpit and Russian metric units. This is how the MiG21bis works and I have thousands of hours in it.

I think it works like that already, or does it not? 

In special options - English cockpit 

In options - units - metric

It does, but annoyingly this changes the entire game into metric. I grew up with metric only so not a big deal, but I'd rather have my game settings detached from the module, i.e. I'd like to be able to leave my game generally in imperial (the more common units in aviation,) but still fly aircraft with metric instruments in metric.

 

For example having the game set to imperial doesn't change the Viggen to be in feet and knots, which is exactly how I like it. 

 

I also don't want to take away the option for people to have their metric jets in imperial.
