Turns may be communicated with either the radio or visual signals. Line Abreast formations compensate for inherent maneuvering problems with specialized pre-briefed procedures. These include the type of turns to be made, the parameters at which these turns will be made, and the method by which these turns will be initiated. The turns consist of 45- to 90-degree delayed turns, in-place turns, cross turns, weaves, and check turns. The parameters for the turns are briefed by each flight leader and usually consist of the speed, “G,” and the power required in the turn. The method of turn initiation is generally by radio call, wing flash, or check turn.

== Check Turns == | |||
Check turns are just gentle turns with no more than 30 degrees of bank and can be used for anything from a minor heading adjustment to a full 360 if needed. (Not use commonly) | |||
