ETC Lands Spatial-Trainer Sale to Pakistan Air Force

Southampton, Pa, July 6, 2006: Environmental Tectonics Corporation (Amex: ETC) ("ETC" or the "Company") today announced the sale of a VID Vestibular Illusion Trainer to the Pakistan Air Force.

This new VID will be used to provide training in vestibular disorientation to Pakistan Air Force crewmembers and will be used as a research platform for spatial disorientation and motion sickness desensitization programs.

Spatial disorientation training emphasizes the physiological hazards of flight. Statistics show that nine out of ten spatial disorientation incidents are fatal. Training in the VID gives aircrews the capability to quickly recognize and effectively cope with the effects of spatial disorientation.

The VID provides continuous yaw at various acceleration and deceleration rates. Special controls allow examination of the aircrew's perceived motion and enable disorientation awareness and critical situation recovery training to be conducted in complete safety. Other key aircrew physiological factors are also recorded throughout each exercise.

William F. Mitchell, ETC's President and Chairman, said, "The Pakistan Air Force's acquisition of a VID is another step in our growing business relations. ETC is proud to supply such equipment for aeromedical research and the improvement of flight safety around the world."
