                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  June 30, 1999

NOTE A - Basis of Presentation

        The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all
information  and  footnotes  necessary  for a  fair  presentation  of  financial
position,  results of  operations,  and cash flows in conformity  with generally
accepted accounting  principles.  In the opinion of management,  any adjustments
considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  have been  included.  Operating
results for the three months ended June 30, 1999, are not necessarily indicative
of the results  that may be expected  for the year ending  March 31,  2000.  For
further  information,   refer  to  the  consolidated  financial  statements  and
footnotes  included in the  Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 1999.

NOTE B - Earnings per Share

        Basic  earnings per common share were computed by dividing net income by
the weighted  average  number of shares of common stock  outstanding  during the
year. Diluted earnings per common share for the three months ended June 30, 1998
was  determined on the  assumption  that the  convertible  debt was converted on
April 1, 1997.  Diluted  earnings  per share for the three months ended June 30,
1999 excluded 3,976,928 shares related to the convertible debt and 868,500 stock
options, at a weighted average exercise price of $15.05,  which were outstanding
during the period but were  anti-dilutive.  The  following  table sets forth the
computation of basic and diluted net income per share:

NOTE C - Commitments and Contingencies

        In January 1998,  the Office and  Professional  Employees  International
Union ("OPEIU")  petitioned the National Mediation Board ("NMB") to organize the
Company's domestic mechanics and ground support personnel. Certain objections to
this petition were filed and the NMB dismissed the OPEIU  application on May 12,
1998.  Under  the  Federal  labor  law  rules,  the  union  is  prohibited  from
petitioning the NMB for one year from date of dismissal.  To date, no subsequent
petitions  have been filed with the NMB. The Company does not believe that these
potential   organizing  efforts  will  place  it  at  a  disadvantage  with  its
competitors as management  believes that pay scales and work rules will continue
to be similar throughout the industry.

NOTE D - Comprehensive Income

     In 1998,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued SFAS No. 130,
"Reporting  Comprehensive Income". SFAS No. 130 requires an entity to report and
display  comprehensive  income and its  components.  Comprehensive  income is as
follows (thousands of dollars):

NOTE E - Derivative Financial Instruments

        In June 1998, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued SFAS No.
133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative  Instruments  and  Hedging  Activities".  The
Statement   establishes   accounting  and  reporting  standards  for  derivative
instruments and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all
derivatives  as either  assets or  liabilities  in the  statement  of  financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value.  Changes in a derivative's
fair value are to be  recognized  currently in earnings  unless  specific  hedge
accounting  criteria are met. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 133
no later than April 1, 2001.  The Company has not yet  quantified  the impact on
its financial statements that may result from adoption of SFAS No. 133, however,
the  Company  does  not  use  derivative   instruments  or  hedging   activities
extensively in its business.

NOTE F - Segment Information

     The Company has adopted  SFAS No. 131,  "Disclosures  about  Segments of An
Enterprise and Related  Information",  which  requires that  companies  disclose
segment data based on how management makes decisions about allocating  resources
to segments and measuring their performance. The Company operates principally in
two business  segments:  Helicopter  activities  and  Production  management and
related  services.  The following shows reportable  segment  information for the
three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,  reconciled to  consolidated  totals,

NOTE G - Supplemental Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

        In connection  with the sale of the Company's $100 million 7 7/8% Senior
Notes  due  2008,   certain  of  the  Company's   subsidiaries  (the  "Guarantor
Subsidiaries")  jointly,  severally and  unconditionally  guaranteed the payment
obligations  under  the  Senior  Notes.  The  following  supplemental  financial
information sets forth, on a consolidating  basis, the balance sheet,  statement
of income  and cash flow  information  for  Offshore  Logistics,  Inc.  ("Parent
Company  Only"),  for the  Guarantor  Subsidiaries  and for Offshore  Logistics,
Inc.'s other subsidiaries (the  "Non-Guarantor  Subsidiaries").  The Company has
not presented separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the
Guarantor  Subsidiaries  because management has determined that such information
is not material to investors.

        The supplemental condensed  consolidating financial information has been
prepared  pursuant  to  the  rules  and  regulations  for  condensed   financial
information  and does not include all disclosures  included in annual  financial
statements, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate
to make the information presented not misleading. Certain reclassifications were
made to conform all of the financial  information to the financial  presentation
on a consolidated basis. The principal eliminating entries eliminate investments
in subsidiaries, intercompany balances and intercompany revenues and expenses.

        The allocation of the  consolidated  income tax provision was made using
the with and without allocation method.

</TABLE>


        The following table sets forth certain operating  information which will
form the basis for discussion of each of the Company's two identified  segments,
Helicopter Activities and Production Management and Related Services.  Beginning
in fiscal year 2000,  the Company has changed the basis of  segmentation  within
its Helicopter  Activities segment. The respective  international  operations of
Air Log  (headquartered in the United States) and Bristow  (headquartered in the
United Kingdom) will, from this point forward, be combined, managed and reported
as a separate  division.  The new  International  division  will  encompass  all
helicopter  activities  outside of the United  States  Gulf of Mexico and Alaska
(reported as "Air Log") and the United  Kingdom and Europe  Sectors of the North
Sea (reported as "Bristow").

        Helicopter Activities

        Air Log and Bristow  conduct  helicopter  activities  principally in the
Gulf of Mexico and the North Sea,  respectively,  where they provide  support to
the  production,   exploration  and  construction  activities  of  oil  and  gas
companies.  Air Log also charters helicopters to governmental  entities involved
in regulating  offshore oil and gas  operations  in the Gulf of Mexico.  Bristow
also  provides  search and rescue work for the British  Coast  Guard.  Air Log's
Alaskan activity is primarily  related to providing  helicopter  services to the
Alyeska  Pipeline.  International's  activities  include  Air Log and  Bristow's
respective  operations in the following  countries:  Australia,  Brazil,  China,
Colombia, Cyprus, India, Kazakastan, Kosovo, Mexico, Nigeria and Trinidad. These
international  operations are subject to local  governmental  regulations and to
uncertainties of economic and political conditions in those areas. International
also  includes Air Log's  service  agreements  with,  and equity  interests  in,
entities that operate aircraft in Egypt and Mexico ("unconsolidated entities").

        Air Log's flight hours and revenue  decreased  during the current fiscal
quarter by 8.9% and 16.5%,  respectively,  from the similar quarter in the prior
year. A decrease in activity was prevalent in both the Gulf of Mexico market and
internationally,  with the exception of Brazil, and was primarily due to reduced
demand for  helicopter  services by the oil and gas  industry.  The  precipitous
decline in oil prices  during  calendar year 1998 caused oil companies to cancel
or delay exploration and development projects, reducing their need for Air Log's
services. Despite resurgence in the price of oil during the current quarter, oil
companies have not returned to previous  activity levels.  As a result,  Air Log
experienced the decreases  discussed  above.  The  disproportionate  decrease in
revenue in  relation  to flight  hours was due to a shift in the mix of aircraft
generating revenue.  Flight hours and revenue generated from larger, crew change
aircraft in the Gulf of Mexico  decreased  over 40% from the similar  quarter in
the prior year, while smaller,  production related aircraft remained  relatively
unchanged.  Air Log's operating margin of 15.1% is relatively unchanged from the
prior year quarter,  and is reflective of cost containment measures put in place
mid calendar 1998 to counter the declining oil and gas industry activity levels,
offset by increased compensation costs for pilots and other employees. Increases
in  utilization  from late June 1999  through the date of this filing  provide a
somewhat more  optimistic  perspective for Gulf of Mexico  activities,  although
there is no certainty that this trend will continue.

        Bristow's  flight  hours  and  revenue   decreased  by  2.2%  and  5.5%,
respectively, during the quarter from the similar period in the prior year. This
decrease in flight activity is the net result of an increase in North Sea flight
hours, offset by decreases in flight hours in international  markets,  primarily
China,  Nigeria and  Trinidad.  The  increase in North Sea activity is primarily
related  to the start up of the Shell  Expro  contract  on July 1,  1998,  which
accounted for 4,080 flight hours and $9.9 million in revenue  during the current
quarter. Apart from this Shell contract activity,  North Sea flight activity and
revenue declined by 18.7% and 24.6%  respectively  from the fiscal 1999 quarter,
as a result of reduced  utilization and pricing pressures from customers.  These
decreases,  along with that of the  international  markets  discussed above, are
reflective of the deteriorating  industry  fundamentals  experienced  during the
intervening quarters.  The North Sea has been more adversely affected by low oil
prices due to generally  higher  exploration  and production  costs in that area
when compared with other production areas around the world. As such, this market
may be slower to rebound from improved  commodity  prices.  Bristow's  operating
margin  decreased  from 9.7% in the  quarter  ended June 30, 1998 to 3.0% in the
current  quarter.  This  decline  in  margin  is due  primarily  to the  reduced
utilization  and pricing  pressures  discussed  above and the limited success of
Bristow in realigning  their cost  structure.  In connection with the previously
reported  cessation  of  contracts  with two major  customers on August 1, 1999,
Bristow  has begun a process to realign  its costs,  which will  involve,  among
other things,  staff  reductions  during the fiscal quarter ended  September 30,
1999. This realignment of cost structure will be an ongoing process and is vital
to  maintaining  Bristow's  competitive  position in the North Sea and  European
markets.

        Production Management and Related Services

        Operating  revenues  for GPM  decreased by 17.6% during the three months
ended June 30, 1999,  as compared to the similar  period in the prior year.  The
decline  in  revenue  is due  primarily  to a  reduction  in the  scope  of work
performed  for a major  customer in the current  quarter as compared to the same
period ago, and other customer  turnover.  GPM's operating margin decreased from
7% to 6% in the current quarter due to a change in the mix of services provided.


        Corporate and Other

        Consolidated net interest  expense  decreased during the current quarter
due to higher invested cash balances and lower debt  outstanding.  The effective
income tax rates from continuing  operations were  approximately 31% and 30% for
the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Cash and cash  equivalents  were $83.8  million as of June 30,  1999,  a
$13.2 million increase from March 31, 1999.  Working capital as of June 30, 1999
was $152.2 million,  a $9.4 million increase from March 31, 1999. Total debt was
$239.6 million as of June 30, 1999.

        As of June 30, 1999,  Bristow had a (pound)15  million  ($23.5  million)
revolving  credit facility with a syndicate of United Kingdom banks that matures
on December 31,  2002.  As of June 30,  1999,  OLOG had a $20 million  unsecured
working  capital line of credit with a bank that expires on September  30, 1999.
No funds  were  drawn  under  either of these  facilities  as of June 30,  1999.
Management  believes that its normal  operations,  lines of credit and available
financing  will provide  sufficient  working  capital and cash flow to meet debt
service needs for the foreseeable  future.  Management also believes that credit
facilities  with similar  terms will be obtained  before the  expiration  of the
above facilities.

        During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Company received proceeds of
$4.0 million from four separate sales of excess aircraft. Subsequent to June 30,
1999,  the Company  purchased  two Bell 407's for $2.7  million and entered into
agreements to acquire ten to twelve aircraft for a price between $35-40 million.
These aircraft acquisitions were or will be made with existing cash. The Company
has no other material capital commitments outstanding.

Legal Matters

        The Company has received  notices from the United  States  Environmental
Protection  Agency that it is one of approximately  160 potentially  responsible
parties ("PRP") at one Superfund site in Texas, one of over 300 PRPs at one site
in Louisiana and a PRP at one site in Rhode Island. The Company believes,  based
on presently  available  information,  that its potential liability for clean up
and other response costs in connection  with these sites is not likely to have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business or financial condition.

Year 2000 Matters

     The Company is addressing its year 2000 exposure. The scope of management's
efforts  includes both information  technology (IT) systems,  such as accounting
and financial ledgers and aircraft and pilot records,  and non-IT systems (which
incorporate embedded technology),  such as onboard  navigational,  communication
and safety  systems.  The Company has completed the  replacement and remediation
phase  of  its  efforts  and  is  currently  in  the  testing  phase.  Based  on
management's best estimates,  the Company expects to have fully tested year 2000
compliant IT and non-IT  systems  operating by September  1999.  There can be no
guarantee however, that this estimated timetable will be achieved. Management is
also  investigating the year 2000 exposure posed by its significant  vendors and
customers.  Currently,  the Company does not have any IT or non-IT systems which
directly interface with either its vendors' or customers' systems.  Accordingly,
the Company's exposure will result from its significant  vendors' and customers'
potential  inability to achieve year 2000  compliance.  Were this to occur,  the
Company could  experience a disruption in the supply of needed parts and repairs
services and/or  diminished demand for the Company's  aircraft,  either of which
could have a material impact on the Company's business. Management has contacted
significant  vendors and customers to ascertain their state of readiness and has
not  received any  indication  of potential  noncompliance  from this group.  No
assurances  can be given,  however that the  Company's  significant  vendors and
customers will not cause  disruption to the Company's  operations.  To date, the
Company has spent $.3 million on its  replacement  and  remediation  efforts and
expects to incur an additional $.1 million before its efforts are complete.  The
Company does not separately account for the internal costs incurred for its year
2000 compliance  efforts.  Such costs consist primarily of salaries and benefits
for the Company's IT personnel. The Company is developing a contingency plan for
the prospect  that it or any of its  significant  vendors and  customers  may be
unable to achieve year 2000 compliance,  and expects to have a plan completed by
September 1999.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

      In June 1998,  the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued SFAS No.
133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative  Instruments  and  Hedging  Activities".  The
Statement   establishes   accounting  and  reporting  standards  for  derivative
instruments and for hedging activities.  It requires that entities recognize all
derivatives  as either  assets or  liabilities  in the  statements  of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value.  Changes in a derivative's
fair value are to be  recognized  currently in earnings  unless  specific  hedge
accounting  criteria are met. The company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 133
no later than April 1, 2001.  The company has not yet  quantified  the impact to
its financial statements that may result from adoption of SFAS No. 133, however,
the  Company  does  not  use  derivative   instruments  or  hedging   activities
extensively  in its business and  therefore  the adoption of this new  statement
should not  materially  affect the Company's  financial  positions or results of
operations.  The new statement could however cause  volatility in the components
of other comprehensive income.

Forward Looking Statements

        This report contains "forward-looking  statements" within the meaning of

included  herein other than  statements of historical  fact are  forward-looking
statements.

        Although the Company  believes that the  expectations  reflected in such
forward-looking  statements are  reasonable,  it can give no assurance that such
expectations will prove to be correct. Important factors that could cause actual
results  to  differ  materially  from the  Company's  expectations  ("Cautionary

ability  to  achieve  Year 2000  compliance  and the  ability  to obtain  credit
facilities similar to existing credit facility terms. All subsequent written and
oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on
its  behalf  are  expressly  qualified  in  their  entirety  by  the  Cautionary
Statements.
