August 08 2014 - 2:50PM
SOUTHAMPTON, PA,
USA, August 8, 2014 - Environmental Tectonics Corporation (OTC
Pink: ETCC) ("ETC" or the "Company") announced today the final
acceptance of two altitude training and research chambers
(www.etcaircrewtraining.com/hypobaric-chamber-altitude-chamber)
provided to the Spanish Air Force (SPAF) and installed at their
aerospace medical training center (CIMA) in Madrid, Spain.
The first contract required moving the original
chamber, first sold by ETC to the SPAF in 1978, from its initial
location to the new CIMA, located at Torrejon Air Force Base.
The second chamber, a new Falcon
altitude chamber, Model 12/4, was delivered, integrated,
man-rated, and commissioned into service at the new CIMA location.
The Falcon family of altitude chambers provides the most current
technology available in altitude simulation. Both systems are
able to support a host of research and operational missions.
During a tour of the new facility, Spain's
Minister of Defense, Pedro Morenes, was present and provided an
overview of the chamber and ETC's technology. He thanked the team
who were onsite for a job well done.
"Their pilots will have expanded and enhanced
capabilities in this area," said William F. Mitchell, Chairman and
CEO of ETC. "Altitude simulation training is critical for any
military with personnel who fly or perform other excercises at high
altitudes. We are grateful for our positive and productive
relations with the SPAF."
