This is probably obvious to everyone else but when setting up the convergence is the unit of measure yards or feet ? and is it then the same unit of measure you see in game next to target ?

Should be yards and its same range as in flight.

I thought it was metres, since the icons are in kilometres?

I thought the icons were in yards also
1.5k = 1500 yards, the k representing thousands

Distances in the convergence settings are in yards. The range to the plane you are firing on is in yards. The distances to planes over 1000 yards are shown as k yards, (ie x,000 yards), *Not* kilometres, (km).

All altitudes on the guages are in feet.

You really don't want to calculate this stuff in miles
