abstract:The flying height or floating height or head gap is the distance between the disk read/write head on a hard drive and the platter. The earliest hard disks had no flying height; their heads were in contact with the media.
Up to 200 Save Our Silton campaigners met at Whistley Farm, Milton on Stour in Gillingham and marched up to the blimp, flying at Turbine height near to the proposed site.
