           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                            ($000's)

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 116,450 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
     2,970,000 (primary and fully diluted) in 1996 and 2,930,000
     (primary) in 1995.

4.   Inventories consist of the following:

     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.

6.   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
                        November 29, 1996

Material Changes in Financial Condition

Cash provided from operations, although positive, decreased from
$1,669,000 in the prior year period to $719,000 in the current
nine months ended November 29, 1996.  The decrease primarily
reflected increased receivables partially offset by increased
accounts payable, net income and depreciation/amortization
reflecting the higher sales activity in the current period.

The Company has a revolving credit agreement with two banks,
which provides financing of up to $7.2 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 November 29, 1996, there were outstanding letters of
credit of approximately $190,000 and the Company had borrowed
approximately $7.0 million under the credit facility.  As of
November 29, 1996, the Company  was in technical default of the
Credit Agreement.  Specifically, the Company had failed to make a
principal payment due the last business day of November 1996
(such payment was made on December 3, 1996), the Company had
failed to supply certain financial information and the Company
had failed to file a registration statement for certain warrants
issued in connection with the revolving credit agreement.  As of
the date of this filing, the Company was in the process of
completing all requirements to cure the defaults.

The Company's sales backlog at November 29, 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 $30,500,000 and
$23,000,000, respectively.

Material Changes in Results of Operations

Net sales of approximately $15.0 million for the nine months and
approximately $5.6 million for the three months ended
November 29, 1996 increased by 32% and 36% in comparison to the
respective prior year periods.  Increases were evidenced across
all product lines with the most significant occurring in
Sterilizers (up 63%), Aircrew Training Systems (up 45%) and
Simulation (up 25%).

Gross profit increased by $804,000 for the nine months and
$504,000 for the three months ended November 29, 1996 as compared
to the prior year 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 $158,000 and $248,000 for the nine
months and three months ended November 29, 1996, respectively,
versus the prior year.  The increase in the current periods
primarily reflected higher commission expense on the increased
sales levels.  However, as a percent of net sales, operating
expenses for the nine months ended November 29, 1996, decreased
to 20.2% versus 25.3% in the prior year's period.

Interest expense decreased in both respective current periods
reflecting lower average loan balances.

The increase in other expenses for both current periods resulted
from amortization of a non-cash deferred finance charge ($152,000
fiscal year to date) associated with warrants issued in
conjunction with the Company's credit facility which expires in
March 1997.  A non-cash deferred finance charge of approximately
$264,000 associated with contingent warrants issued in
conjunction with the Company's credit facility has not been
booked to the profit and loss statement because it is
management's opinion that the warrants will not be required to be
issued.
