With wheels below the eye height, the wheel height at threshold will be less than 60 ft and vary depending on aircraft size and approach attitude.
PAPI is normally harmonised to value consistent with the majority types of aircraft using that runway.
For specific long body / large aircraft, a second set of PAPIs may be installed further along the runway to provide an increased wheel height at threshold.
