English term or phrase: Barrel Rolls
The phrase says:

"Another example of this is an incident in which a plane started doing barrel rolls for some unknown reason in the air traffic control pattern."

I understand what "barrel roll" means in reference to an airplane's attitude, but I cannot find the proper Spanish equivalent. I would appreciate suggestions.

Thank you!

Acá puedes ver que existen varios tipos de toneles
Por lo general todas las maniobras tienen muchas variaciones, llámense rollos, ochos, chandeles, loops, etc.

Debe diferenciarse de aileron roll.
Aileron roll: barrena realizada en el eje longitudinal
Barrell roll: barrena realizada en los ejes longitudinal y lateral.
