Environmental Tectonics Corporation's Orange Flag 2009 Sets Multiple Orange Flag 2010 Events

SOUTHAMPTON, Pa., Dec. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Environmental Tectonics Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: ETCC) ("ETC" or the "Company") and its subsidiary the National Aerospace Training And Research (NASTAR®) Center (www.nastarcenter.com) announce plans to hold multiple Orange Flag events through the 2010 calendar year.


Orange Flag (www.etcorangeflag.com) events are held at the NASTAR Center to serve as a forum by which fighter pilots and aircrew and high ranking officials can come to evaluate and fly tactical missions, either singularly or against "friendly" air and ground opponents, in the Authentic Tactical Fighting System 400 (ATFS-400), a state-of-the-art, sustained G flight simulator.


The ATFS-400 integrates a high fidelity aircraft cockpit that incorporates a virtual tactical environment into a high-performance, fully flyable human centrifuge. Pilots can fly the ATFS like a tactical aircraft. The ATFS-400 combines ETC's virtual battle space, unique G-Pointing, motion-based technologies, and ETC's "Signature Technology". ETC has designed the ATFS-400 to manage system resonances and to optimize natural frequency and system bandwidth. This design combined with state of the art control system architecture, motion control laws and aircraft flight models yields a flight motion platform that can provide the performance and feel (i.e., the "signature") of an intended aircraft. The ATFS-400 produces the most authentic flight experience possible in a ground-based simulator, allowing pilots to hone their tactical skills in an environment that rivals flying the actual aircraft


The purpose of the Orange Flag events is to provide a forum where aircrew can actually experience the next generation of flight simulation technology, safely flying up to and beyond the edge of the envelope, in tactical scenarios while developing and improving tactics and flying skills. Additionally, Orange Flag provides a forum where the free exchange of ideas and experiences occurs between participants.


Interested parties should check the official Orange Flag website (www.etcorangeflag.com) for additional event dates as they become available throughout the 2010 calendar year and contact the designated personnel accordingly with additional questions.


Glenn King, NASTAR Center's COO, stated, "ETC's Orange Flag 2009 event, held in October 2009, generated very positive feedback and based on this feedback we plan to hold multiple Orange Flag events throughout the year. We are pleased to open this event to interested domestic and international military pilots."
