ETC Receives Notice of Suspension From NAVY

Southampton, PA: October 8, 2007 - Environmental Tectonics Corporation (AMEX-ETC) ("ETC" or the "Company") today announced that it had received a notice from the Department of the Navy suspending ETC from performing work for the federal government pursuant to the Federal Acquisition Regulations ("FAR").

As a result of the suspension, the name of the Company has been published in the Excluded Parties List System which is a publication of the General Services Administration that sets forth, among other things, the names of contractors suspended by any agency of the federal government.

While the suspension is in place, offers will not be solicited from the Company, contracts will not be awarded to the Company, and existing contracts may not be renewed or otherwise extended by the Company unless the head of an agency taking the contracting action states a compelling reason for such renewal or extension. The Company is permitted to continue performing contracts for the federal government that were awarded prior to the suspension.

Under the FAR, the Company has 30 days from receipt of the suspension notice to submit information and make arguments in opposition to the suspension. On October 10, 2007, the Company will meet with the Department of the Navy Suspending and Debarring Official to submit information and make arguments in opposition to the suspension.
