3.   Earnings per common share are based on net income divided by
     the number of common and common stock equivalent shares
     (shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and
     warrants) outstanding.  Weighted average number of common
     shares and equivalents outstanding were approximately
     2,960,000 (primary and fully diluted) in 1996 and 2,874,000
     (primary) in 1995.

4.   Inventories consist of the following:

                           August 30, 1996     February 23, 1996

     Raw materials              $  733               $  696

5.   The components of accounts receivable are as follows:

                           August 30, 1996     February 23, 1996*

     *Restated to conform to current classifications.


     U.S. Government receivables billed and unbilled contract
     costs subject to negotiation:

     Unbilled contract costs subject to negotiation represent
     claims made or to be made against the U.S. Government.  In
     fiscal 1995, the Company recorded approximately $1.4 million
     of claims revenue related to two certain aircrew training
     systems contracts.  No claims revenue was recorded in fiscal
     1996 or 1997.  The Company has recorded claims to the extent
     of contract costs incurred.  These costs have been incurred
     in connection with U.S. Government-caused delays, errors in
     specifications and designs, and other unanticipated causes
     and may not be received in full during fiscal 1997.  In
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
     revenue recorded by the Company from a claim does not exceed
     the incurred contract costs related to the claim.  The
     Company estimates that the total net claims filed and to be
     filed approximate $7.3 million, a portion of which has been
     included in U.S. Government receivables billed and unbilled
     contract costs subject to negotiation.  Such claims are
     subject to negotiation and audit by the U.S. Government.

     See also footnote number 6.

6.   Subsequent Event

     On October 1, 1996, the Company was notified of the results
     of an arbitration award concerning a large contract with the
     Royal Thai Air Force (the "RTAF").  In October 1993, the
     Company had been notified by the RTAF that the RTAF was
     terminating a certain $4.6 million simulator contract with
     the Company, alleging a failure to completely perform.  In
     connection with this termination, the RTAF made a call on a
     $229,000 performance bond, as well as a drew on
     approximately $1.1 million of advance payment letters of
     credit.  The RTAF also asserted liquidated damages against
     the Company.  In October 1993, the surety made payment on
     the $229,000 performance bond, and in the first quarter of
     fiscal 1995, it made payment on the approximately $1.1
     million advance payment letters of credit.

     On October 1, 1996, the Thai Trade Arbitration Council
     rendered its decision, under which the contract was
     reinstated in full, and the Company was instructed to
     complete the remainder of the contract work.  Upon
     completion of the contract, the RTAF will pay the Company
     the 10% balance due, and will also release the performance
     bond and advance payment guarantee that were called. 
     Additionally, no penalties will be assessed against the
     Company.  An amount of $1,374,000 related to this settlement
     is included in International receivables billed at August 30
     and February 23, 1996.

7.   Contingencies

     Certain claims, suits and complaints arising in the ordinary
     course of business have been filed or are pending against
     the Company.  In the opinion of management, after
     consultation with legal counsel, all such matters are
     reserved for or adequately covered by insurance or, if not
     so covered, are without merit or are of such kind, or
     involve such amounts, as would not have a significant effect
     on the financial position or results of operations of the
     Company if disposed of unfavorably.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis:

               ENVIRONMENTAL TECTONICS CORPORATION
                        AND SUBSIDIARIES

             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
                         August 30, 1996

Material Changes in Financial Condition

Cash provided from operations decreased from $1,153,000 in the
prior year period to $261,000 in the current six months ended
August 30, 1996.  The decrease primarily resulted from reduced
cash from accounts receivable partially offset by increased
accounts payable and accrued liabilities and reduced prepaid
expenses.  Although the accounts receivable balance was basically
constant from February 23 to August 30, 1996, the prior period
reflected a large decrease due to collection of receivables
billed on two certain international aircrew training systems
contracts and two certain domestic sterilizer contracts. 
Increases in the current period in accounts payable and accrued
liabilities reflected the overall increased purchase activity,
while the decrease in prepaid expenses resulted from amortization
of prepaid commissions.

The Company has a revolving credit agreement with two banks,
which provides financing of up to $7.7 million.  The facility
expires by its terms on March 31, 1997.  The credit facility
permits both direct borrowing for working capital and other
corporate purposes and the issuance of letters of credit for the
Company.  At August 30, 1996, there were outstanding letters of
credit of approximately $190,000 and borrowings of approximately
$7.2 million under the credit facility.

The Company's sales backlog at August 30, 1996 and February 23,
1996 for work to be performed, training and maintenance
contracts, and prospective revenue to be recognized after that
date under written agreements was approximately $31,500,000 and
$23,000,000 respectively.

Material Changes in Results of Operations

Net sales of approximately $9.4 million for the six months and
approximately $4.9 million for the three months ended August 30,
1996 increased by 29% and 38% in comparison to the respective
equivalent prior year's periods.  Increases were evidenced across
all product lines except environmental which was negatively
impacted by reduced bookings at the end of last year.  The most
significant increases for the current six month period was
evidenced in sterilizers (up 78%) and aircrew training systems
(up 46%).

Gross profit increased by $300,000 for the six months and
$331,000 for the three months ended August 30, 1996 as compared
to the prior year's respective periods.  The increases reflected
the aforementioned sales increases partially offset by a sales
mix shift to lower-margin sterilizer sales in the current
periods.

Operating expenses were up $50,000 for the three months ended
August 30, 1996, but fiscal year to date are down by $90,000
versus the prior year.  As a percent of net sales, operating
expenses for the six months ended August 30, 1996, decreased to
20.8% versus 28.2% in the prior year's period.

Interest expense increased in both respective current periods
reflecting an increase in the interest rate charged by the
Company's primary lender coupled with additional interest expense
paid on a federal tax settlement.

The increase in other expenses for both current periods resulted
from amortization of a deferred finance charge associated with
warrants issued in conjunction with the Company's credit facility
which expires in March, 1997.
