CHAPTER TEN

NOTE

While engaging turns are standard in tactical aviation, the above

turn sequences (i.e., ICITT, TICIT etc.) are training tools unique to

VT-86.

ICITT

An ICITT will displace a section laterally from its initial position. Figure 10-9 illustrates an

ICITT flown to the right. If, for example, the section in Figure 10-9 was heading south at the

commencement of the turn sequence, an ICITT right (shown) will displace the flight towards the

west. An ICITT left on the other hand would displace the section to the east. At the completion

of an ICITT, the section will still be headed in its original direction.
