                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION:


INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The accompanying consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts
of American Aircarriers Support, Incorporated, a Delaware corporation, and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries Aviation Services, Inc., AAS Landing Gear Services,
Inc., AAS Amjet, Inc., AAS Complete Controls, Inc., AAS Aircraft Services, Inc.
and AAS Technologies, Inc., (collectively "AAS"). All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These
statements have been prepared by AAS, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and reflect all
adjustments that, in management's opinion, are necessary for fair presentation.
All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The balance sheet as of
December 31, 1999, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial
statements as of that date. Operating results for the three month period ending
March 31, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 2000.


Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
here have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations,
although we believe the disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. It is suggested that these consolidated interim
financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and the notes thereto included in our Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1999.


RECLASSIFICATIONS


Certain amounts in the 1999 financial statements have been reclassified in order
to conform with 2000 presentation


2.  LINE OF CREDIT:


In May 1999, AAS entered into a five-year revolving credit agreement and capital
expenditure loan facility ("Credit Agreement") with Bank of America (the
"agent") and other financial institutions ("the lenders"). The Credit Agreement
provides a line of credit up to $100 million of which $10 million is designated
as the Capital Expenditure Loan Facility. The Credit Agreement replaced an
existing $35 million line of credit, which was repaid in full from the proceeds
of the new facility. In conjunction with the new financing, AAS wrote off $0.1
million of deferred financing fees associated with the previous line of credit.
Principal amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement bear interest on a
variable rate basis at various interest rates tied to either the London
Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or the prime rate, depending on certain
indebtedness ratios. The terms of the Credit Agreement also provide for a
facility non-use fee of 3/8% per annum on the unused portion of the facility.
The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of AAS's assets and the
capital expenditure loan facility is secured by all of the equipment funded by
the facility.

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED


2.  LINE OF CREDIT-CONTINUED:


The capital expenditure loan facility may be drawn down through May 2000, at
which time it converts into a term loan amortizing over the remaining term of
the Credit Agreement. The amount of credit available under the agreement at any
given time is determined by an availability calculation, based on the eligible
borrowing base, as defined in the credit agreement which includes the
outstanding receivables and inventories, with certain exclusions. In December
1999, the existing credit facility was amended to allow for an additional $1
million, in excess of the availability established by the borrowing base
calculation, to be available to us until additional subordinated debt could be
obtained. As of March 31, 2000, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, as amended,
the available credit was $1.0 million and $4.9 million on the revolver and
capital expenditure line, respectively. The Credit Agreement, of which $69.3
million and $5.1 million were outstanding under the revolver and capital
expenditure loan facility, respectively, at March 31, 2000, contains customary
events of default and restrictive covenants that, among other matters, require
that certain financial ratios be maintained. As of March 31, 2000, AAS was not
in compliance with certain restrictive financial covenants.


3.   TREASURY STOCK


In February 2000, AAS entered into an agreement to exchange $621,000, classified
on the balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 as accounts receivable from
affiliates, for 69,000 shares of common stock which were issued to a related
party in connection with one of the previous acquisitions. Subsequent to the
agreement, AAS sold the stock for $621,000. As of March 31, 2000, cash in the
amount of $600,000 had been received, leaving an open accounts receivable
balance of $21,000. The agreement also calls for the registration of the
remaining 56,000 shares held by the related party or the assistance by AAS with
a private placement of those shares. During March, AAS repurchased 25,000 of
these shares from the related party for $9 per share, or $225,000. These shares,
which are held in treasury; carried at cost and reflected as a separate
deduction from shareholders' equity. In April, AAS finalized the purchase of a
facility from the related party for $363,000 and the assumption of the $450,000
mortgage on that facility and entered into a new lease for another facility
previously subleased from the related party.

5.  BUSINESS COMBINATION:


Effective February 15, 2000, AAS completed the acquisition of certain assets of
Santa Barbara Aerospace, Inc., for a purchase price of $2.3 million in cash and
notes. The name of subsequently changed to AAS Aircraft Services, Inc. The
acquisition involved the purchase of assets used in the operation of a facility
that was FAA certified to provide heavy maintenance and modification services.
AAS entered into a lease of the facilities previously used for these services
from the San Bernardino International Airport Authority.


The AAS Aircraft Services acquisition has been accounted for by the purchase
method of accounting, and accordingly, the results of operations of AAS Aircraft
Services for the period from February 15, 2000 are included in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed have
been recorded at their estimated fair values, and are subject to adjustment
within the next twelve months when additional information concerning asset and
liability valuations are finalized.


The assets of Santa Barbara Aerospace, Inc. were purchased out of bankruptcy.
Therefore, there is no pro forma information on the results of operations as if
the acquisition had taken place on January 1, 2000.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 and 1999


Net revenues increased approximately $0.4 million, or 2.9%, to $14.0 million in
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $13.6 million in the corresponding
period in 1999. Businesses acquired during the second quarter of 1999 and the
first quarter of 2000 accounted for approximately $1.4 million of the total net
revenues as of March 31, 2000. This revenue was partially offset by a decrease
in net revenues of the other companies of approximately $1.0 million.


A number of factors contributed to the decrease in revenues such as delays of
customer approvals for MRO services and purchasing decisions not to buy parts
due to an industry slowdown that was caused by the uncertainty of fuel prices
during the first part of the quarter.


Cost of sales and service totaled approximately $10.5 million, or 75.5% of net
revenues, in the first quarter of 2000, compared with $9.0 million, or 66.0% net
of revenues, in the first quarter of 1999. Gross profit decreased 25.8% to $3.4
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, compared with $4.6 million
for the same period last year. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit was
approximately 24.5% of revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2000,
compared with approximately 34.0% in the three months ended March 31, 1999. The
decrease in gross profit is largely attributable to the pricing pressures
resulting from the increased competition related to the industry slowdown and
delayed customer purchases.


Selling and marketing expenses increased $0.3 million, or 40.5%, to $1.1 million
in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $0.8 million in the three months
ended March 31, 1999. This increase primarily reflects compensation expenses
related to additional staffing, fees paid to outside agents and sales related
travel. As a percentage of net revenues, selling and marketing expenses
increased to 8.2% in the three months ended March 31, 2000, compared to 6.0% of
net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 1999.


General and administrative expenses increased $0.5 million, or 40.1%, to $1.9
million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $1.3 million in the
comparable 1999 period. The majority of the increase in expenses is attributable
to the approximately $0.4 million of general and administrative expenses
associated with the recently acquired operations. Other expense increases which
negatively impacted results were insurance, rent and depreciation. As a
percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000, general
and administrative expenses were 13.4%, compared with 9.8% of net revenues in
the three months ended March 31, 1999.

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 - continued


Net interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2000 increased by $1.3
million to approximately $1.7 million, compared to $0.4 million in the three
months ended March 31, 1999. This increase is due to the higher levels of
indebtedness outstanding used to finance the recent acquisitions, inventory
purchases and working capital requirements. For the three months ended March 31,
2000, the weighted average borrowings under the Credit Facility were $65.8
million and the weighted average interest rate was 8.46%.


As a result of the above, net income before taxes decreased $3.3 million, or
160%, to a pre-tax loss of $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2000 from
pre-tax income of $2.1 million in the same period in 1999. Net loss after the
income tax benefit of $0.5 million was $0.7 million ($0.11 loss per diluted
share) for the three months ended March 31, 2000.


In January 2000, AAS purchased a DC10 aircraft for disassembly for $8.5 million.
The aircraft was financed under our revolving credit facility. We are presently
in the process of disassembly, inspection and tagging the parts in preparation
for sale. We anticipate the sales from this aircraft to significantly impact
third and fourth quarter results of operations.


In February 2000, AAS entered into a technology partnering agreement with
SupplyAccessTM for the joint development of an Internet-based distribution model
for parts sales. We borrowed $3 million from an unaffiliated private investor to
fund our participation in the development and marketing of this
business-to-business e-Procurement solution for the aerospace industry. Both
principal and interest on the loan are due at the earlier of one hundred twenty
days from the closing or the funding of a subordinated debenture offering in the
minimum amount of $10 million. The loan is evidenced by an unsecured,
subordinated promissory note that bears interest at 9.5% per annum and is
secured by the personal guaranty of the founder and CEO of AAS. The bridge
lender also received an option to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock at
$8.00 per share for a four-year period. The option has customary anti-dilution
provisions and the holder has certain resignation rights.


In March 2000, AAS signed a commitment letter to issue up to $25 million in
subordinated debt to an unaffiliated institutional investor, subject to a due
diligence review. As of May 10, 2000, the subordinated debt financing had not
been closed.

                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


The primary sources of liquidity for AAS prior to completion of the May 1998
initial public offering were cash flows from operating activities, borrowings
under the prior credit facility and advances from its two founders. AAS requires
capital to purchase inventory, to fund product servicing and overhaul
facilities, for normal operating expenses and for general working capital
purposes.


In May 1999, AAS entered into a five-year revolving credit agreement and capital
expenditure loan facility. The Credit Agreement provides for a line of credit up
to $100 million, of which $10 million is designated as the Capital Expenditure
Loan Facility. The Credit Agreement replaced an existing $35 million line of
credit, which was repaid in full from the proceeds of the new facility. In
conjunction with the new financing, we wrote off $0.1 million of deferred
financing fees associated with the previous line of credit. Principal amounts
outstanding under the Credit Agreement bear interest on a variable rate basis at
various interest rates tied to either the LIBOR or the prime rate, depending on
certain indebtedness ratios. The terms of the Credit Agreement also provide for
a facility non-use fee of 3/8% per annum on the unused portion of the facility.
The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of AAS's assets and the
capital expenditure loan facility is secured by all of the equipment funded by
the facility. The capital expenditure loan facility may be drawn down through
May 2000, at which time it converts into a term loan amortizing over the
remaining term of the Credit Agreement.


The amount of credit available under the credit agreement at any given time is
determined by an availability calculation, based on the eligible borrowing base,
as defined in the credit agreement which includes the outstanding receivables
and inventories, with certain exclusions. In December 1999, the existing credit
facility was amended to allow for an additional $1 million, in excess of the
availability established by the borrowing base calculation, to be available to
us until additional subordinated debt could be obtained. As of March 31, 2000,
pursuant to the Credit Agreement, as amended, available credit was $1.0 million
and $4.9 million on the revolver and capital expenditure line, respectively.


As of March 31, 2000, AAS's principal sources of liquidity included cash and
cash equivalents of $10,000, net accounts receivable of $18.0 million and
potentially up to $20.7 million of available borrowings under the revolver if
inventory and accounts receivable are at level that yield such availability as
determined by the borrowing base calculation. Additionally, there is $4.9
million of borrowings available under the capital expenditure line of the Credit
Agreement. There was working capital of $9.0 million and long-term debt of $11.3
million at March 31, 2000.


For the three months ended March 31, 2000, operating activities used cash of
$16.5 million, primarily for increases in inventory and decreases in accounts
payable and accrued expenses and income taxes payable, which were partially
offset by decreases in accounts receivable.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - CONTINUED


Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31,
2000 was $6.5 million, reflecting the purchase of fixed assets, increased
acquisition costs that were incurred in connection with the purchase of certain
assets of Santa Barbara Aerospace, Inc., which closed on February 14, 2000, as
well as an investment in a technology partnering agreement for the development
of an internet-based distribution model for aircraft parts sales. Net cash
provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2000,
was $22.9 million, which consisted primarily of net borrowings under the Credit
Agreement.


Capital expenditures were approximately $3.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000. Of this amount, approximately $2.1 million is related to the
acquisition of AAS Aircraft Services and approximately $1 million is related to
the leasehold improvements necessary for the completion of the expansion of our
flight control maintenance, repair and overhaul facility in Tucson, Arizona. The
expansion was completed and the new facility opened in February 2000. Our
planned expansions of our plating facility for our landing gear operation, along
with our new engine maintenance, repair and overhaul facility, have been delayed
due to the delays in closing our subordinated debt financing.


On April 30, 2000, the amendment to our credit facility which allowed for the
additional $1 million of availability expired. As of that date and continuing
afterward, our borrowings have exceeded the availability allowed by the
borrowing base calculation resulting in a default under our Credit Agreement.
The lenders have agreed to provide financial accommodations at this time, but
have reserved their right to exercise all rights and remedies under the Credit
Agreement at any time without further notice to AAS.


We have recently begun a plan to significantly reduce our debt through the sale
of certain assets held for rotable exchanges at our MRO facilities and the
reduction of inventory levels. Existing cash balances, accounts receivable and
amounts available under the Credit Facility may not be sufficient to meet future
short-term capital requirements. If we are unsuccessful in closing the
subordinated debt facility in the near future, we will be forced to seek other
financing alternatives. There can be no assurance that we will be capable of
securing additional capital or that the terms upon which such capital will be
available to us will be acceptable.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" (SFAS No. 133). This statement addresses the accounting
for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments imbedded in
other contracts, and hedging activities. The Statement is effective for all
fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. In June 1999,
the FASB issued SFAS No. 137 which delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 133
until fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. We do
not believe that the adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 133 will
significantly impact the financial reporting of American Aircarriers Support,
Incorporated and Subsidiaries
