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
