Also, if there's a topic you would like JC to address, let us know . Examiners, however, will tell you that these probably say the most about an applicant's understanding of what airplanes do while the conditions of flight are changing dynamically. We cannot perform chandelles and lazy eights mechanically and have them work properly. A pilot must anticipate and plan for expected aircraft performance, while a CFI candidate must be able to explain, both on the ground and in flight, what the aircraft is doing and why.
Lets look at some examples.
To answer, you must know something about the built-in lateral stability and that it was designed to work best at cruise airspeed. I define shallow to mean that bank where the airplane will return to wings level when released, medium to mean the bank where the airplane will remain, and steep to be where the bank will increase. So now we have the probability of using right aileron and right rudder in a chandelle to the left. Flight instructors should also not forget that their visual pictures are backwards from their student's. Let's next consider the lazy eight.
