The name of this maneuver comes from the fact that the flight path extends along the longitudinal axis of the aircraft and is drawn as the number 8 (drooping number 8) on its side. As shown in Figure 9-4.
A lazy horoscope consists of two turns of 180 degrees, which are in opposite directions, but climb and descend symmetrically in each turn. In the whole process of lazy figure-eight, the plane will never fly straight and sideways; On the other hand, it rolls directly from one side to the other, and the wing is horizontal only at the moment when it turns in the opposite direction after completing every 180 degree course change.
Jump sharply
This is the maximum performance climb turn, starting from approximately straight horizontal flight and ending with the minimum controllable airspeed and the accurate 180 degree turn with the wing level and high nose attitude.
