Non pilot question. I (think) I understand the need for the yaw to port so the pilot can keep line of sight with his departure point.
Once he yaws back to starboard and loses sight of his departure point, is this part of the TDP (ie, he is now committed to generating some airspeed), and at this point when he yaws round to his intended departure route, has he ceased climbing?

Hope you guys are ok with layman questions of this nature.
