| ETC Announces the Successful Demonstration of Virtual Aircraft Disaster Exercises at Airport Executive Conference |
| Southampton, Pa., May 4, 2006: Environmental Tectonics Corporation ("ETC" or the "Company") announced today the successful demonstration of the Advanced Disaster Management Simulator (ADMS™) at the 78th Annual AAAE (American Association of Airport Executives) Conference held in San Diego, California on April 23-26, 2006.
The conference was attended by over 3,000 airport aviation professionals such as airport managers, planners, vendors and executives. ADMS was showcased at the conference allowing delegates to interactively participate in a mass casualty aircraft crash exercise with over 100 injuries and deaths. The simulation allowed participants to make real life decisions in a crisis situation while ADMS reflected the outcomes of sound or unsound choices in real time, from five different disciplinary perspectives: Incident Command, Airport Operations, Fire/Rescue, Emergency Medical Services, and Security. One exercise participant remarked, "This is the best training we can get without actually being there. This is the most exciting technology I've seen in a long time." ADMS enables response organizations to work collaboratively to mitigate crisis situations and maintain order in the chaos of a catastrophic event. ADMS presents a disaster situation in an authentic, physics-based 3D environment and dynamically reacts to trainees' commands, utilizing realistically modeled vehicles, people and equipment. ADMS provides stress levels like those experienced in an actual event, facilitating a dynamic, realistic training environment. For over a decade, ADMS has been in use at US Airports and major firefighting and emergency response training facilities worldwide, and is an industry-proven and mature solution for optimal emergency preparedness.
