September 30, 1997
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with Form 10-Q instructions and thus
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the
opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three and nine month periods ending September
30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the entire year.
During February of 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share, which will become effective
for all financial statements issued for periods ending after December
15, 1997, including interim periods. SFAS No. 128 provides for the
presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the
financial statements and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB)
Opinion No. 15, Earnings per Share. SFAS No. 128 requires the
restatement of earnings per share for prior periods presented after its
effective date. SFAS No. 128 does not have a material effect upon the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and September 30,
1996. However, the impact on other prior periods has not yet been
determined.
Net income per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
the three and nine months ending September 30, 1997 after giving effect
to the equivalent shares which are issuable upon the exercise of stock
options determined by the treasury stock method in accordance with APB
No. 15.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Registrant's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
2. Notes Receivable
During 1994, the Company obtained 40% ownership of a joint venture
involved in the development of aircraft-related technology for an
initial investment of $1,000. The Company accounts for its investment
in the joint venture under the equity method. In 1994, the Company
obtained a promissory note for an advance of $2,000,000 to the joint
venture. The principal balance of the promissory note accrues interest
at a maximum rate of 5%, and the principal balance together with
accrued interest are due January 5, 1999. The note is secured by
certain assets of the joint venture. During 1997, 1996 and 1995 the
Company advanced an additional $476,000, $75,000 and $1,020,000 to the
joint venture, net of repayments. These advances are included in
accounts receivable.
3. Commitments and Contingencies
On May 10, 1991, an action was filed in the District Court of Dallas
County, Texas, by Lee D. Webster, former Chairman, Chief Executive
Officer and President of Whitehall, against the Company, each of its
directors (other than Mr. Webster) and Cambridge Capital Fund, L.P.,
alleging, among other things, that ( i) the defendants' actions, both
individually and in concert, constituted willful interference with Mr.
Webster's employment relationship with the Company and were the direct
cause of Mr. Webster's termination as its President and Chairman of the
Board, and (ii) the defendants' actions forced Mr. Webster into
retirement without providing Mr. Webster with retirement benefits which
Mr. Webster was purportedly promised. On August 17, 1994, the
defendants were granted a partial summary judgment. On October 24,
1994, Mr. Webster filed a third amended petition and alleged the
following causes of action: tortious interference with contractual
relations against Cambridge Capital Fund, L.P., and directors

3. Commitments and Contingencies - Continued
George F. Baker and John J. McAtee; intentional infliction of emotional
distress; and breach of oral contracts. The third amended petition
sought compensatory and punitive damages in excess of $35 million. On
January 12, 1995, the Court entered an abatement on one of the breach
of oral contract claims against the Company and entered a summary
judgment in the defendants' favor on all remaining claims alleged by
Mr. Webster. On February 26, 1996, the Court granted a summary
judgment in favor of the defendants on Mr. Webster's remaining claim
and entered a take nothing final judgment which dismissed all of Mr.
Webster's claims with prejudice to refiling. On March 26, 1996, Mr.
Webster appealed the final judgment to the Dallas Court of Appeals.
Management has vigorously defended the appeal.
A subsidiary of the Company, Aero Corporation ("Aero"), is taking
remedial action pursuant to Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA")
regulations at the Lake City, Florida facility. The Company does not
anticipate any material direct effects upon the capital expenditures,
earnings and competitive position of the Company from compliance with
present Federal, State and local provisions which have been enacted or
adopted regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or
otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. The Company
does expect, however, that compliance with such regulations will
require, from time to time, both increased operating costs and capital
expenditures which may be substantial. As of September 30, 1997 and
December 31, 1996, the Company had reserved approximately $272,000 and
$379,000 respectively for anticipated environmental remediation costs
at the Aero facility. The decrease in accrued environmental
remediation costs was due to expenditures. Other remaining costs to be
incurred will include testing and monitoring to be performed over a 20
to 30 year period. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may
vary from the estimate, given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating
environmental exposures. These uncertainties include the extent of
required remediation based on testing and evaluation not yet completed
and the varying costs and effectiveness of remediation methods.
The Company is also involved in certain legal proceedings in the normal
course of its business.
After consultation with counsel, management is of the opinion that the
outcome of the above-mentioned proceedings will not have a material
effect on the financial position or results of operations of the
Company.
4. Acquisition
During July of 1997 the Company, through its subsidiary Aero - Macon
Corporation acquired in an asset purchase agreement the aircraft
maintenance facilities located in Macon, Georgia that were owned by
Zantop International Airlines, Inc. for cash and the assumption of
lease liabilities for an aggregate cost of $6.7 million.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
September 30, 1997
General
The principal business of the Company is the third party repair and
maintenance of aircraft for its customers. The Company's business is
in part seasonal in nature and is influenced by many of the same
factors that affect the aircraft maintenance industry as a whole.
The Company has increased its capacity to better take advantage of
growth in the industry by recently purchasing an additional aircraft
repair and maintenance facility located in Macon, Georgia as well as
disposing of those segments of its business which do not fit with the
Company's expansion plans. Additionally, the Company owns a 40%
interest in AvAero, a joint venture that manufactures FAA-certified
hush kits for jet engines.

</TABLE>
Sales. Whitehall Corporation's consolidated sales for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1997 of $14.3 and $46.8 million,
respectively, represented a 12.6% and 17.4% decrease from the sales
reported in the comparable periods of 1996. Sales for the first
through third quarters of 1996 include $1.0 and $4.3 million,
respectively, related to the Ocean Systems segment which was sold in
the fourth quarter of 1996 and its Electronics segment which was sold
in the first quarter of 1997. Sales in the Aircraft Maintenance
segment during the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 of
$14.3 and $46.2 million, respectively, were lower than aircraft
maintenance sales during the comparable periods in 1996. The decrease
was primarily due to hangar space that was reserved in anticipation of
the U.S. Air Force C-130 maintenance awarded during April of 1997,
(subsequently canceled at the convenience of the government in June of
1997). The C-130 contract provides for reimbursement by the U.S. Air
force of costs incurred during its operation and the Company has
recorded a claim against the government for these costs.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
September 30, 1997
Gross Profit(Loss) on Sales. The loss in gross profit on sales (derived
by deducting cost of sales from sales) during the current three and
nine month periods of $6.9 million and $871,000, respectively, compared
to the comparable periods in the previous year is primarily
attributable to the reserving of $3.5 million of accounts receivable of
which collectability is in serious doubt. Approximately $1.2 million of
accounts receivable has been reserved relating to several customers
that are either bankrupt or are in extremely weak financial condition
and approximately $1.0 million of accounts receivable have been
reserved because of disputes with certain large customers of the
Company the ultimate resolution of which cannot be determined. In
addition, during the current quarter the Company has written off
approximately $1.6 million in accounts receivable related to a
settlement of a dispute with one of its customers.
Selling, General and Administrative. The increase in selling, general
and administrative expenses during the current three and nine month
periods of 47.9% and 8.5%, respectively, over the comparable periods in
the previous year is primarily due to increased legal expenses relating
to the Company's acquisition activities.
Other Income(Loss). The current three and nine month other loss of $4.9
million and $3.8 million, respectively as compared to the Company's
other income of $807,000 and $1.2 million during the comparable
respective periods in the previous year is because of a write-down of
an investment in the preferred stock of Hydroscience Technologies, Inc.
of $4.5 million.
Net Income(Loss). The Company's net loss during the current three and
nine month periods of $8.2 and $5.8 million, respectively, is primarily
attributable to the decreased gross profit as described above,
increased selling, general and administrative expenses and the other
losses related to the write-down of the Company's investment in
preferred stock.
Financial Condition
During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, cash used operations
totaled $6.1 million as compared to cash used in operations of $2.3
million in the same period of 1996. The cash used in operations was
primarily a result of increases in trade accounts and income taxes
receivable. The Company's capital expenditures totaled $3.0 million
during the first nine months of 1997 compared to $2.8 million during
the same period of 1996. The capital expenditures are a part of the
continuing program to maintain its aircraft maintenance facility.
The Company believes that despite the losses generated by reserving
certain of its accounts receivable and write-down of an investment in
preferred stock (neither action affecting cash balances), its cash
generated from its operations coupled with its current cash balances
and line of credit facility are sufficient to meet its short and long-
term capital and liquidity requirements *. The Company intends to
actively pursue opportunities for the acquisition of aircraft
maintenance facilities *. In order to provide additional funds for
continued pursuit of the Company's growth strategies and for operations
over the longer term, the Company may incur, from time to time,
additional short and long-term bank indebtedness and may issue, in
public or private transactions, its equity and debt securities, the
availability and terms of which may depend upon market and other
conditions. There can be no assurance that such possible additional
financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.
During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997, the
Company did not acquire any additional shares of its common stock. At
September 30, 1997 there were approximately 242,200 additional shares
available for repurchase under the Company's current repurchase
authorization. The Company may continue to acquire stock as market
conditions warrant*.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The information contained in Item 3 of the Registrant's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996, is incorporated
herein by reference.
On May 10, 1991, an action was filed in the District Court of Dallas
County, Texas, by Lee D. Webster, former Chairman, Chief Executive
Officer and President of Whitehall, against the Company, each of its
directors (other than Mr. Webster) and Cambridge Capital Fund, L.P.,
alleging, among other things, that (i) the defendants' actions, both
individually and in concert, constituted willful interference with Mr.
Webster's employment relationship with the Company and were the direct
cause of Mr. Webster's termination as its President and Chairman of the
Board, and (ii) the defendants' actions forced Mr. Webster into
retirement without providing Mr. Webster with retirement benefits which
Mr. Webster was purportedly promised. On August 17, 1994, the
defendants were granted a partial summary judgment. On October 24,
1994, Mr. Webster filed a third amended petition and alleged the
following causes of action: tortious interference with contractual
relations against Cambridge Capital Fund, L.P., and directors George F.
Baker and John J. McAtee; intentional infliction of emotional distress;
and breach of oral contracts. The third amended petition sought
compensatory and punitive damages in excess of $35 million. On January
12, 1995, the Court entered an abatement on one of the breach of oral
contract claims against the Company and entered a summary judgment in
the defendants' favor on all remaining claims alleged by Mr. Webster.
On February 26, 1996, the Court granted a summary judgment in favor of
the defendants on Mr. Webster's remaining claim and entered a take
nothing final judgment which dismissed all of Mr. Webster's claims with
prejudice to refiling. On March 26, 1996, Mr. Webster appealed the
final judgment to the Dallas Court of Appeals. Management has
vigorously defended the appeal.
