In the video your altimeter showed 80m height from runaway, the airport's altitude above a sea is added to this (~40-50 m). Bacause of this, the automatics throws the bombs from ~120-130m higher, what the set on the upper altimeter is. Of course, its much more important between mountains, than on the seacoast

Thanks for your posting Tom!
How do you know this stuff? - Are you in the development team?
I would love to know all this, but there is nowhere I can find such info! - There really should be a web site with all this, a wiki maybe... - Also with info on how to use the FMB... - As it is I am struggling with finding my way in the dark.
Anyway, I probably needed those extra 120 meters when I threw the bomb!
