The author considers an anlogue of the Airy integral for the case when whispering gallery mode scatters on a point of local straightening of the boundary. The special function related to the problem which is investigated is defined by means of the contour integral \[ \psi (z,t) = \int_L {\exp \left\{ {i\omega M(z,t,v)} \right\}} dv, \] where \[ M(z,t,v) = z(v^3 - t^3 ) - t(v^3 - t^3 )^2 - \tfrac{3}{2}\,t^4 (v^3 - t^3 ) - \tfrac{9}{{14}}\,t^7 + \tfrac{9}{{14}}\,v^7, \] and the contour \(L\) begins in the sector \((6\pi /7,\pi )\) and ends in the sector \((4\pi /7,5\pi/7 ).\)
