1.    The information in this report reflects all adjustments
      which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair
      statement of the results for the interim periods presented.

      There has been no significant change in the Company's
      effective tax rate since February 23, 1996.

2.    Under the Company's 1988 Incentive Stock Option Plan,
      500,000 shares of the Company's common stock are currently
      reserved for issuance in connection with the exercise of
      options, and options to acquire 79,550 shares are currently
      outstanding.

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
      2,922,000 (primary and fully diluted) in 1996 and 2,874,000
      (primary) in 1995.

      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.  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.

      International unbilled contract costs subject to
      negotiation:

      Unbilled contract costs subject to negotiation represent
      claims made or to be made against the Royal Thai Air Force
      ("RTAF").  In the first quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company
      recorded approximately $1.1 million of claims receivable
      (but no claims revenue) for letters of credit drawn related
      to the same contract.  The Company has recorded claims to
      the extent of the drawn letters of credit and called
      performance bond, which may not be recovered in full in
      fiscal 1997.  The total net claim filed includes these
      amounts and are subject to arbitration and negotiation with
      the foreign government.

6.    Contingencies:

      Claims and Litigation:

      In October 1993, the Company was notified by the RTAF that
      the RTAF was terminating a certain $4.6 million simulator
      contract with the Company.  Although the Company has
      performed in excess of 90% of the contract, the RTAF alleged
      a failure to completely perform.  In connection with this
      termination, the RTAF made a call on a $229 performance
      bond, as well as a draw on approximately $1.1 million of
      advance payment letters of credit.  The RTAF has also
      asserted liquidated damages against the Company.  In October
      1993, the surety made payment on the $229 performance bond,
      and in the first quarter of fiscal 1995, it made payment on
      the approximately $1.1 million advance payment letters of
      credit.  The Company has commenced arbitration with the
      RTAF.  In the arbitration, the Company is asserting claims
      against the RTAF for reimbursement of the costs incurred on
      the bond and letters of credit called, as well as claims for
      costs incurred in connection with RTAF-directed changes in
      the work and RTAF-caused delays and damages to the Company's
      work.  The Company is also claiming that the termination was
      wrongful and that the Company is entitled to complete the
      work and to be paid the balance of the contract price.  The
      case is pending before the Thailand Arbitration Board. 
      Management believes the Company has meritorious claims in
      excess of claims made by the RTAF, as well as meritorious
      grounds to support nonpayment of the performance bond and
      letters of credit.  The Company has also denied the RTAF
      claims and believes they are without merit.  Accordingly, no
      provision for any liability that may result has been made in
      the accompanying financial statements.  Management and legal
      counsel believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters
      will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
      financial position or results of operations.

      Certain other 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.<PAGE>

                               AND SUBSIDIARIES

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
                                 May 31, 1996

                                  (Unaudited)

Material Changes in Financial Condition

Cash provided from operations decreased from $575,000 in the
prior year period to $145,000 in the current three months ended
May 31, 1996.  The decrease primarily resulted from an increase
in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on
uncompleted long-term contracts coupled with a decrease in
billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted
long-term contracts, both of which resulted in uses of cash from
operations.  The change in both of these accounts reflected the
stage of billing/production for many of the long-term contract
jobs in the current period.  Many of the existing contracts have
passed the initial start-up period (where billing normally
exceeds cost expenditures) and are into the middle/pre-shipment
phase where production costs normally exceed billing balances. 
Because of the anticipated receipt of revenues in the next
quarter, the Company will have sufficient liquidity to fund
continuing operations and to meet all obligations as they become
due. 

The Company has a revolving credit agreement with two banks,
which provides financing of up to $9.0 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 May 31, 1996, there were outstanding letters of
credit of approximately $644,000 and the Company had borrowings
of approximately $7.3 million under the credit facility.

The Company's sales backlog at May 31, 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 $26,000,000 and $23,000,000,
respectively.  

Material Changes in Results of Operations

Net sales of approximately $4.5 million for the three months
ended May 31, 1996 increased in comparison to the equivalent
prior year's quarter.  Increases were evidenced across all
product lines except environmental which had a temporary slow-
down reflecting reduced bookings at the end of last year.  The
most significant increase was evidenced in sterilizers with an
83% increase.

Although sales increased, gross profit decreased in the current
quarter to $1,395,000, 30.9% of net sales, from $1,426,000, 33.8%
of net sales, in the prior year's period.  This decrease was
primarily attributable to the aforementioned sales mix shift to
sterilizers (from a higher mix of aircrew training sales in the
prior period) as sterilizers generally produce lower margins than
the aircrew training systems line.

Operating expenses decreased $140,000, 12.8%, reflecting
continuing stringent cost controls.

Interest expense increased from the prior year as a reduced
balance was offset by a higher interest rate.

Other expenses in the current period reflected amortization
expense of $25,000 of a deferred finance charge associated with
warrants issued in conjunction with the Company's credit facility
which expires in March, 1997.<PAGE>
