OK, Pruners, what was the cleared speed range and ht for release of the HE bombs?
Quoting from Pilots' Notes for the Mk 2 - AP 4732B-PN - at Pt II Chap 1 para 16....

Cluster Grenades

Cleared for release through the doorway in the speed range 20 to 100 kts and the height band 50 to 300ft. AGL.
That's the H-est E I can think of - if you don't count underslung Honest John warheads........
