Please excuse a question, hopefully in the correct forum, from an enthusiast.
In any amount of video/film footage taken on an airliner flightdeck during touchdown, an automated voice can be heard calling out the remaining height to touchdown, i.e. '50 feet, 40 feet, 30 feet, etc.
My question is, where is the height mentioned referring to? Is it to the main undercarriage wheels, the belly of the aircraft, or w.h.y.?
Thank you.
