Converting RVR values to statute miles (and vice versa)
At Laguardia airport (KLGA) on runway 4, an RVR value of 1 3/8 statute mile visibility is given for the localizer only approach.

Regulations states that when converting RVR values, you never interpolate, just use the next greatest number. So how would one convert 1 3/8 statue miles into feet?
My formula: 1.375 * 5280 = 7,260 ft
RVR
Visibility (statute miles)
1600 1/4
2400 1/2
3200 5/8
4000 3/4
4500 7/8
5000 1
6000 1 1/4
