| Like the Chandelle, the Lazy Eight is not a competition manoeuver but is required for the power commercial pilot test. The aerobatics version of the Lazy Eight is two wingovers back to back. The FAA commercial pilot version is similar but the maximum bank is only 45 degrees instead of 90 degrees. The name Lazy Eight comes from the fact that the nose of the airplane is following a figure 8 on its side on the horizon |
