How far off is it from the E6B for the same wind speed and direction, and airspeed?

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

The vertical stabilizer causes a plane to turn toward the wind when the plane is on the ground, but not when it is flying.
