SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application To Withdraw From Listing 
and Registration; (Simula, Inc., Common Stock, $.01 Par Value; 12% 
Senior Subordinated Notes (Series 1993) Due 1998) File No. 1-12410

March 5, 1996.
    Simula, Inc. (``Company'') has filed an application with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to 
Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') and Rule 
12d2-2(d) promulgated thereunder, to withdraw the above specified 
securities (``Securities'') from listing and registration on the 
American Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'').
    The reasons alleged in the application for withdrawing the 
Securities from listing and registration include the following:
    According to the Company, in addition to being listed on the Amex, 
the Securities are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. 
(``NYSE''). The Securities commenced trading on the NYSE at the opening 
of business on January 31, 1996 and concurrently therewith the 
Securities were suspended from trading on the Amex.
    In making the decision to withdraw the Securities from listing on 
the Amex, the Company considered the direct and indirect costs and 
expenses attendant with maintaining the dual listing of the securities 
on the NYSE and on the Amex. The Company does not see any particular 
advantage in the dual trading of the Securities and believes that dual 
listing would fragment the market for the Securities.
    Any interested person may, on or before March 26, 1996, submit by 
letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 
Fifth Street NW., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts bearing upon whether 
the application has been made in accordance with the rules of the 
exchanges and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission 
for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on the 
information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the 
application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission 
determines to order a hearing on the matter.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary,
