During a soft-field takeoff and initial climb in a single-engine airplane, if left turning tendencies are not corrected with rudder input, the airplane yaws left at a rate of 3° per second. Approximately how many degrees will the heading have deviated from the runway heading after 20 seconds?

When determining the best angle of climb speed for a soft-field takeoff and climb, refer to the following excerpt from the POH climb performance chart: Sea Level: Weight (lbs) | VX (KIAS) | VY (KIAS) 2300 | 60 | 73 2500 | 62 | 74 2,000 ft: Weight (lbs) | VX (KIAS) | VY (KIAS) 2300 | 59 | 75 2500 | 61 | 76 VX at sea level and 2,400 lb is

(ASEL) During a soft-field takeoff, an airplane with a 40-foot wingspan is flown close to the runway surface to take advantage of ground effect during the initial acceleration phase. Ground effect is most significant when the height of the wing above the runway is less than
