from a practical point of view, you better have one heck of a gin pole over 20 ft long, for the sections are 20 ft....


I don't think the gin pole would need to be over 20 feet long unless you had some sort of requirement to only lift the sections by the upper end. The gin pole only needs to reach higher than the center of gravity of the section it's lifting, plus a little bit for practical purposes.
