commercial maneuvers

Oh Man Jim, that's a long post. You know me and the way I get into things
:-)) I don't mind but you guys could save me a ton of typing if you just
looked this one up with a good reference.
Right off the top of my head I'd use the Kershner Advanced Pilot Manual.
I've used that myself for many years.

Fair enough. I had to try, right? g

I was looking forward to Dudley's answer/post meself -- even if it would
have meant being forced to buy another 56,000 gigajoules of bandwidth...

Also, these maneuvers can be performed without undue stress on the
airplane.
A good examiner will have a fair handle on how good an applicant will
perform in the air simply by watching that applicant do the preflight,
taxi-out, and run up. These two maneuvers can finish the job in the air.
Just as an aside, it's harder to do a well performed SHALLOW Lazy Eight
than it is a steep one :-))

Would you mind to talk us through one, and tell what the physical movements
are, and what the pilot is looking at/for along the way, to do it right?

You pay the gas and I'll fly and talk you through a few.

Why are chandelles and lazy eights a maneuver requirement for the
commercial? Or are they still?

Because of the precision reqiurement to pull them off?

Yes, and yes.
