NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X.  Accordingly, these financial statements 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 (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for
the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31,
1996.  Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current year presentation.  For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in Aviall, Inc.'s Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1995.

NOTE 2 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

    In April 1996, Aviall and its wholly owned subsidiary, Aviall Services,
Inc., signed a definitive agreement with Greenwich Air Services, Inc.
("Greenwich") and its wholly owned subsidiary, GASI Engine Services, Inc., for
the sale of its engine repair operations in Dallas/Fort Worth and Prestwick,
Scotland and its component repair facility in McAllen, Texas.  Also in April
1996, Aviall signed a definitive agreement with Curtiss-Wright Flight Systems,
Inc. for the sale of its Miami-based accessory services repair station.  The
accessory repair services sale was completed on May 20, 1996, and the engine
repair services sale was completed on June 10, 1996.  The engine repair
services sale agreement provided Greenwich the unilateral option to pay a
portion of the purchase price in stock.  Greenwich did not exercise this option
and paid the full purchase price in cash (or assumed liabilities). Included in
the $212.5 million estimated loss on disposal recorded in December 1995 was a
$10.5 million provision for loss on sale of the stock which was reversed in the
second quarter of 1996.

NOTE 3 - NONRECURRING CHARGE

    In April 1996, Aviall signed a letter of intent to sell its aerospace
fastener distribution business and recorded a $3.9 million first quarter pretax
charge in connection with the planned sale.  Accordingly, the assets and
liabilities of this business have been segregated and are presented separately
on the accompanying June 30, 1996 balance sheet.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW.  The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the information set forth under Item 7: Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations on pages 11 through
16 of Aviall, Inc.'s (the "Company") Form 10K for the year ended December 31,
1995.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE
MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995.

    Net sales in the second quarter of 1996 were $93.6 million, up $5.8
million, or 7%, from the $87.8 million recorded in the same 1995 quarter.  The
increase was driven primarily by increased shipments to domestic airline and
international aviation customers as well as volume increases on aerospace
fastener Just-In-Time (JIT) contracts partially offset by a $5.1 million
decline in sales of turbine engine parts.  Rights to distribute these parts
were associated with the Company's business aviation and aircraft and terminal
services operations which were sold in March 1995, but sales from the inventory
in stock have continued through the second quarter of 1996.  Excluding the
discontinued turbine part sales from each period, sales in the continuing
operations increased 13%.

    Gross profit of $23.8 million was $1.6 million higher than the $22.2
million in the 1995 second quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of sales
increased from 25.3% to 25.4%.

    Selling and administrative expenses increased $1.1 million to $20.2 million
in the second quarter of 1996. The increase was due to severance expenses
associated with corporate staff reductions and legal and accounting fees
incurred in connection with the amended bank credit agreement.

    Interest expense was higher than in the second quarter 1995, reflecting the
accelerated amortization of debt issuance costs.

    The 1996 results include a $10.5 million gain from the disposal of
discontinued operations due to the receipt of cash rather than an anticipated
partial stock payment.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS
ENDED JUNE 30, 1995.

    Net sales in the first half of 1996 were $185.8 million, an increase of
$11.1 million, or 6%, from the $174.7 million recorded in the comparable 1995
period. Sales of discontinued turbine parts decreased $10.3 million. Excluding
the discontinued turbine part sales from each period, sales in the continuing
operations increased $21.4 million, or 13%, on increased shipments to domestic
and international airline customers, higher volume in product repair services
and new JIT contracts for aerospace fasteners.

    Gross profit of $48.4 million in the first six months of 1996 increased
$2.1 million, or 5%, from the first half of 1995.  Gross profit as a percentage
of sales decreased from 26.5% in 1995 to 26.0% in 1996.  This decrease stemmed
primarily from low margins on the disposal of excess inventory.

    Selling and administrative expenses increased $1.7 million to $41.7 million
in the first six months of 1996.  The increase was due to severance charges and
legal and accounting fees associated with amending the Company's bank credit
agreement.

    The nonrecurring charge of $3.9 million, comprised of the write-down of
inventory and the accrual of estimated expenses, was incurred as a result of
the expected sale of the aerospace fastener business.

    Interest expense was higher than in 1995, reflecting the accelerated
amortization of debt issuance costs.

    The 1996 results include a $10.5 million gain from the disposal of
discontinued operations due to the receipt of cash rather than an anticipated
partial stock payment.

=======================================================================================================
</TABLE>

    Cash flows from operations were $13.5 million in the first six months of
1996 compared to $(9.3) million in the 1995 period.  Working capital improved
during 1996 primarily as a result of higher accounts payable.  Depreciation and
amortization expense increased due to the Company amending its senior secured
credit facilities (the "Credit Facilities") to provide for a maturity date of
April 30, 1997. The shorter maturity date required the related debt issuance
costs to be amortized over the shorter period causing an increase of $1.4
million over 1995.  In 1995, the negative working capital change was due to a
payment to Ryder System, Inc. for the settlement of 1993 federal income taxes
pursuant to the tax-sharing agreement entered into in connection with the
spin-off in December 1993.

    The Company completed the sales of its discontinued commercial engine
services businesses in the second quarter of 1996.  The cash proceeds of $232.6
million, net of transaction and closing costs, were used to make pro rata
reductions in the term loans and revolving lines of credit as required by the
terms of the Credit Facilities.  These cash proceeds represent approximately
95% of the anticipated sales proceeds.  The Company continues to pursue
completion of the remaining outstanding issues in order to finalize these sales
transactions, including the post closing audits.

    The business aviation and aircraft and terminal services operations were
sold on March 15, 1995 for cash proceeds of $76.8 million and a $12.0 million
unsecured, subordinated note due 2002, with a stated interest rate of 12%. The
Company used the proceeds, net of transaction and closing costs, to prepay a
portion of its secured term loan as required by the terms of the Credit
Facilities.  The 1995 decline in the revolving Credit Facilities of $33.5
million reflected cash provided from operations plus a decrease in outstanding
bank overdrafts.

OUTLOOK.  In 1996, the Company continues to be in a state of transition.
Management has completed a major portion of the sales of non-strategic
businesses and used the net proceeds to significantly reduce debt.  The
culmination of these transactions is expected to further improve the balance
sheet and reduce ongoing interest costs.  Corporate functions are being
reorganized and streamlined through integration with distribution support
functions.  This will necessitate additional charges later in 1996 for
severance and other costs associated with the planned reorganization.

    The Company believes that its expected cash flow from operations and
availability under its revolving lines of credit are sufficient to meet its
current working capital needs and the funding of transaction expenses
associated with the sales of the non-strategic businesses. The Company expects
to refinance or restructure its remaining debt after the completion of the sale
of its aerospace fastener business.  If debt is repaid prior to maturity,
amortization of the remaining debt issuance costs will accelerate
correspondingly.

    In April 1996, Aviall signed a letter of intent to sell its aerospace
fastener distribution business to a company to be formed by Aviall Aerospace's
vice president and general manager.  This sale is expected to be completed in
1996.

    Aviall's new focus is on the distribution of aviation parts to the
aftermarket and providing inventory information services.  Management believes
this narrowed focus will enable the Company to improve profitability through
participation in markets which offer significant growth opportunities.  In
addition, the Company's estimated $160 million net operating loss carryforward
as of December 31, 1996 will minimize U.S. federal income tax payments for
several years.
