EXHIBIT 99.1



FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Flight Safety Technologies, Inc. in Legal Dispute with Analogic Corporation

 

MYSTIC, CT (June 30, 2006) - On June 28, 2006, Flight Safety Technologies, Inc. (AMEX symbol FLT) received notice that Analogic Corporation has filed a lawsuit against FST and its CEO and Sanders Design International (SDI) and its principals over perceived contractual interference relating to development of TIICM™ countermanpads technology on which SDI and FST have filed a joint patent application.

Analogic's lawsuit, among other things, asserts that FST and SDI infringed Analogic's rights under a 2003 license agreement between SDI and Analogic by entering into a teaming agreement in 2004 and filing the joint patent application in 2005.

FST believes that the Analogic lawsuit does not address, among other things, Analogic's active participation in the TIICM™-FST-SDI "team presentations" as well as public pronouncements from Analogic that it was supporting the FST-SDI joint TIICM™ technology development activities.

FST believes that the Analogic allegations are without factual and legal merit and intends to vigorously defend its position.
