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

The METAR for the grass airfield you plan to depart from includes the remark 'RE,' indicating recent rain and a soft field surface. For a soft-field takeoff, during the initial phase of the ground roll, the elevator control should be positioned

(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

The table below shows wheel loading as a percentage of gross weight versus elevator deflection during the initiation of a soft-field takeoff. Elevator Deflection | Wheel Loading (%) ---|--- 0° | 100% 10° | 70% 15° | 50% 20° | 30% 25° | 15% The soft runway surface will support a maximum wheel loading of 40% of gross weight. To minimize sinkage during acceleration, the pilot should apply aft elevator pressure to reach at least
