RA = H E I G H T (above the ground !!)

Example (horizontal flt): if the ground comes up RA 'Height' decrease and if the ground goes down RA 'Height' 'increase.

Just out of curiosity, WHY is point Delta is the "descent point" and WHY would one want to lower the gear there? Point Delta is the point where the descent(Final segment) starts. D = descent ;) Under normal curcumstances (no high speed app etc.) from the point where you start the descent ...
