Yes, Ray, they do use kilometers per hour and and kilometers for distances And, meters per second for wind speed. There are still 360 degrees in a full circle though

Miles per hour or kilometers per hour I don't believe are ever used..

By the way, in the 60s-70s many American made planes came from the factory with a MPH indicator installed..
