For Immediate Release
SOUTHAMPTON, PA, USA, June 24, 2016 - Environmental Tectonics Corporation (OTC
Pink: ETCC) ("ETC" or the "Company") today announced that the U.S. Naval
Research Medical Unit Dayton ("NAMRU-D"), located at Wright-Patterson Air Force
Base held a ribbon cutting ceremony on June 17, 2016 for ETC's GYROLAB GL-6000
Spatial Disorientation Training and Research Device ("GL-6000"). The GL-6000,
nicknamed "The Kraken" by the U.S. Navy, is engineered and manufactured by ETC's
Aircrew Training Systems ("ATS") business unit. NAMRU-D will use this device to
support clinical and operational research, among other activities.
Robert L. Laurent, Jr., Chief Executive Officer, President, and Director,
indicated that "The GL-6000 is an important and technologically advanced spatial
disorientation device. ETC is proud to be providing it to NAMRU-D to support
its mission to save lives through research that will broaden the understanding
of human factors in aerospace."
About the GL-6000:
The GL-6000 is the world's most technologically advanced spatial disorientation
training and research device. With its dynamic motion capability and
reconfigurable cabin, the GL-6000 can support operational and clinical research
by simulating complex human factors issues for air, space, land and water
vehicles. It has an advanced motion system with six degrees of freedom (Rotary,
Pitch, Roll, Yaw, Vertical, and Horizontal), 360° continuous bidirectional
rotation in four axes (Rotary, Pitch, Roll, and Yaw), a ±16.5 foot horizontal
track, and a ±3 foot vertical carriage. The GL-6000 is also capable of
generating sustained accelerations of 3 G's and includes options such as
interchangeable cockpits that can be vehicle specific with varying levels of
fidelity, a wide field-of-view display system, and medical monitoring
equipment. The GL-6000, like all of ETC's training and research devices, is
manufactured in accordance with ISO 9001 quality standards.
