When the METAR contains "6SM" (as in visibility of 6 statute miles), it's synthesized as '6 metres'. Is there a workaround?

Solution for us is to not use international format at all. Visibility now reads without any unit of measure.

Any more hints Brad?  I won't use it, yet, to replace the Euroscope built in one due to the bugs such as this.
