            INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     Unless the context otherwise requires, reference to the "Company" in this
Form 8-K/A includes TriStar Aerospace Co. and its subsidiaries. The Pro Forma
Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and the related notes thereto,
and management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations related thereto, all of which are included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the period ended September 30, 1998 filed with the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

     On March 24, 1999, a subsidiary of TriStar Aerospace Co. consummated the
acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Standard Parts
and Equipment Corporation ("SPEC" or "Business Acquired"). SPEC is engaged in
the business of distributing aerospace fasteners, fastening systems and related
hardware to the aerospace industry. SPEC is based in Fort Worth, Texas. The
allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed
has been initially assigned and recorded based on preliminary estimates of fair
value and may be revised as additional information concerning the valuation of
such assets and liabilities becomes available.

      The following unaudited pro forma financial statements of the Company give
effect to: (i) the activity of the Company and (ii) the activity of the Business
Acquired for the periods prior to the consummation of the acquisition, as if the
acquisition occurred on October 1, 1997.

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the six
months ended March 31, 1999 is based upon:

          (i)  the unaudited consolidated statement of operations of the
               Company for six months ended March 31, 1999; and

         (ii)  the unaudited statement of operations of SPEC for the period
               from October 1, 1998 through the acquisition date of
               March 24, 1999.

      The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the
twelve months ended September 30, 1998 is based upon:

          (i)  the consolidated statement of operations of the Company for
               the twelve months ended September 30, 1998;  and

         (ii)  the consolidated statement of operations of SPEC for the twelve
               months ended December 31, 1998.

      Due to the difference in the fiscal year end for the Company and SPEC, the
results of operations for SPEC for the three-month period ended December 31,
1998 are included in both of the pro forma financial statements described above.
Revenues and net income for SPEC during this period were $6,946,000 and
$1,729,000, respectively.

      The pro forma financial statements have been prepared based upon certain
assumptions and include all adjustments as detailed in the Notes to Unaudited
Pro Forma Financial Statements. The pro forma financial data does not purport to
represent what the Company's financial position or results of operations would
actually have been if the transactions had occurred on those dates or to project
the Company's financial position or results of operations for any future period.

                    STANDARD PARTS AND EQUIPMENT CORPORATION
                 Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1998
                                 (In Thousands)

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING

POLICIES

Standard Parts and Equipment Corporation (the "Company") is a Texas corporation
which is primarily in the business of distributing repair and replacement parts,
principally fasteners, used by the aircraft industry. The Company has customers
throughout the United States and in some foreign countries, which are serviced
through its warehouses located in Ft. Worth, Texas; Carson, California; and
Wichita, Kansas.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from those estimates.

ALLOWANCE FOR BAD DEBTS

The allowance for bad debts is based on prior years' experience and management's
analysis of accounts receivable at year-end.

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined
by the first-in, first-out method.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to
operations as incurred. Material renewals and replacements, which improve or
extend the useful lives of individual assets, are capitalized. Depreciation is
computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of
the various assets.

INCOME TAXES

The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected to be taxed as an
S Corporation under Section 1362 of the Internal Revenue Code, which provides
that, in lieu of corporate income taxes, the stockholders are taxed on the
Company's taxable income. State income taxes have been provided for states not
recognizing S Corporation status.

NOTE 2. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of
credit risk consists primarily of trade accounts receivable and cash deposited
in a financial institution in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation's insured limit. Substantially all customers are in the aircraft
industry, but such credit risk is considered by management to be limited due to
the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base.

NOTE 3.  SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES CONCERNING CASH FLOWS

The Company's operations reflect interest paid of $370 and state income taxes
paid of $127 for 1998.
