Abstract: We show how one can obtain an asymptotic expression for some special functions satisfying a second order differential equation with a very explicit error term starting from appropriate upper bounds. We will work out the details for the Bessel function $J_u(x)$ and the Airy function $Ai(x)$ and find a sharp approximation for their zeros. We also answer the question raised by Olenko by showing that ${\displaystyle }$c_1 |

u^2-1/4,| < sup_{x ge 0} x^{3/2}|J_ u(x)-sqrt{frac{2}{pi x}} , cos (x-frac{pi u}{2}-frac{pi}{4},)| <c_2 |

u^2-1/4,|, ${\displaystyle }$ $uge-1/2,,$ for some explicit numerical constants $c_1$ and $c_2.$
