Release Height
Release Height : Height at which an aircraft releases water or retardant over a target. Two types of release height are of particular significance: (2) High release - A release made from a higher than normal height. This type of release can be ordered for tactical or safety reasons. (2) Low release - A release made from a lower than normal height. A low release normally poses greater risks than a high release because flight hazards tend to be greater and because pilots have less time to take action in the case of an engine failure or other emergency with the aircraft. A low release may, however, be more effective than a high release in particular circumstances
