In ground effect information needed...

Given the multitude of experience with different platforms, and the abilities to express ones experience on this forum, I am looking for some real world data on ground effect. Specifically, the AGL at which you can 'feel' the ac is in ground effect.



There is a multitude of scenarios, but looking for any and all experience that you drivers have had. (color is always appreciated) 388 would be fantastic, 747, 330..the ones you need to leave a little bit extra space behind on ARR.

I am looking for the aircraft type, landing weight, flap settings, and winds...I know, quite a bit, but generalities are fine. You can also PM if you like.

Thanks for any and all information!
