Vigilant Pilot:

The Minimum Eye Height over Threshold (MEHT), It is the lowest eye height over the runway threshold at which an on-slope
indication on the PAPIs will be seen for a given approach.

Reference Datum Height (RDH) is the height that the aircraft should pass over the threshold on a 3 degree approach (normally 50').
