                        POLARIS AIRCRAFT INCOME FUND II,
                        A California Limited Partnership

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)



1.     Accounting Principles and Policies

In the opinion of management,  the financial statements presented herein include
all  adjustments,  consisting  only of  normal  recurring  items,  necessary  to
summarize fairly Polaris Aircraft Income Fund II's (the Partnership's) financial
position and results of operations.  The financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with the  instructions  of the Quarterly  Report to the Securities
and  Exchange  Commission  (SEC)  Form  10-Q  and  do  not  include  all  of the
information  and note  disclosures  required by  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.  These  statements  should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements  and notes thereto for the years ended  December 31, 1994,  1993, and
1992  included in the  Partnership's  1994 Annual Report to the SEC on Form 10-K
(Form 10-K).

Financial  Accounting  Pronouncements  - The  Partnership  adopted SFAS No. 114,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," and the related SFAS No. 118
as of January  1, 1995.  SFAS No.  114 and SFAS No.  118  require  that  certain
impaired  loans be measured  based on the present  value of expected  cash flows
discounted at the loan's  effective  interest  rate; or,  alternatively,  at the
loan's  observable  market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan
is collateral  dependent.  The Partnership had previously measured the allowance
for credit losses using methods similar to that prescribed in SFAS No. 114. As a
result,   no  additional   provision  was  required  by  the  adoption  of  this
pronouncement. The Partnership has recorded an allowance for credit losses equal
to the  full  amount  of the  following  impaired  loan as a  result  of  issues
regarding  its  collection  due to cash flow  deficiencies  of the  lessee.  The
Partnership recognizes revenue on this loan only as payments are received.

As discussed in Note 4, the standstill agreement with Trans World Airlines, Inc.
(TWA)  provides  for a  deferral  of  certain  rents  due the  Partnership.  The
Partnership  recorded a note receivable and an allowance for credit losses equal
to the  total  of the  deferred  rents,  the net of which  is  reflected  in the
accompanying balance sheets. The note receivable and corresponding allowance for
credit  losses will be reduced by the  principal  portion of  payments  received
which are  scheduled  to commence May 31, 1995.  In  addition,  the  Partnership
recognizes  rental  revenue and interest  revenue as payments are received.  The
deferred rents and  corresponding  allowance for credit losses were $3.6 million
and $1.575 million as of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively.

Reclassification  - Certain 1994 balances have been  reclassified  to conform to
the 1995 presentation.




                                       7

2.     Continental Airlines, Inc. (Continental) and Continental Micronesia, Inc.
       (Continental Micronesia) Cost Sharing Agreements

In accordance  with the  Continental  and  Continental  Micronesia  cost-sharing
agreements  as  discussed in the Form 10-K,  in January  1994,  the  Partnership
financed  $2,177,533 to  Continental  and  Continental  Micronesia for new image
modifications,  which is being repaid with  interest over the lease terms of the
three  aircraft.  The  Partnership  has received  all  scheduled  principal  and
interest payments due from Continental and Continental  Micronesia through March
31,  1995.  The  aggregate  note  receivable  balance  as of March 31,  1995 and
December 31, 1994 was $1,649,436 and $1,764,167, respectively.


3.     Promissory Note from ALG, Inc. (ALG)

One hushkit set from the aircraft formerly leased to Pan American World Airways,
Inc.  was sold in January 1993 to ALG for a net sales price of  $1,750,000.  ALG
paid cash for a portion of the sales  price and  issued an 11%  interest-bearing
promissory note for the balance of $1,132,363,  which specifies 23 equal monthly
payments and a balloon  payment of $897,932 due in January 1995. ALG paid to the
Partnership $19,138 of the balloon payment in January 1995, originating an event
of default under the note. The Partnership and ALG subsequently restructured the
terms of the promissory note. The  renegotiated  terms specify payment by ALG of
the note  balance  with  interest  at a rate of 13% per annum  with one lump sum
payment  in  January  1995 of  $254,733,  eleven  monthly  payments  of  $25,600
beginning in February 1995,  and a balloon  payment in January 1996 of $416,631.
The  Partnership has received all scheduled  renegotiated  payments due from ALG
through  March 31, 1995.  The note  receivable  balance as of March 31, 1995 and
December 31, 1994 were $592,473 and $890,265, respectively.


4.     TWA Reorganization

As  part  of the  TWA  lease  extension  as  discussed  in the  Form  10-K,  the
Partnership agreed to share the cost of meeting certain Airworthiness Directives
after TWA reorganized in 1993. The agreement stipulates that such costs incurred
by TWA may be credited  against monthly rentals,  subject to annual  limitations
and a  maximum  of  $500,000  per  aircraft  through  the end of the  lease.  In
accordance with the  cost-sharing  agreement,  TWA may offset an additional $2.7
million  against  rental  payments,  subject  to  annual  limitations,  over the
remaining lease terms.

In addition,  as discussed in the Form 10-K, in October  1994,  TWA notified its
creditors,  including the Partnership,  of a proposed restructuring of its debt.
Subsequently,  GE Capital Aviation  Services,  Inc. (which,  as discussed in the
Form 10-K,  now  provides  certain  management  services  to Polaris  Investment
Management  Corporation and Polaris Aircraft Leasing  Corporation)  negotiated a
proposed  standstill  agreement with TWA for the 46 aircraft that are managed by
GECAS. That agreement,  which was subject to the approval of the owners of these
aircraft,  was  subsequently  approved by PIMC.  The  agreement  provides  for a
moratorium on the rent due the Partnership in November 1994 and 75% of the rents
due the  Partnership  from December  1994 through March 1995,  with the deferred
rents,  which  aggregate  $3.6  million plus  interest,  being repaid in monthly
installments  beginning  in May 1995  through  December  1995.  The  Partnership
recorded a note receivable and an allowance for credit losses equal to the total
of the deferred rents, the net of which is reflected in the accompanying balance
sheets. The Partnership will not recognize the rental amount deferred in 1994 of
$1.575  million or the amount  deferred  in the first  quarter of 1995 of $2.025
million as rental revenue until it is received.


                                       8

<PAGE>



In consideration for that partial rent moratorium, TWA agreed to make an initial
payment to the TWA lessors for whom GECAS provides  management  services and who
agreed to the proposed  standstill  agreement,  including the  Partnership.  The
Partnership  received as  consideration  for the  agreement  $218,171 in January
1995,  which was  recognized as other revenue in the  accompanying  statement of
operations  for the three  months ended March 31,  1995.  In  addition,  TWA has
agreed to issue warrants to the  Partnership for such amount of TWA Common Stock
as would have a value (based on the projected  balance sheet  provided by TWA in
connection  with the  restructuring)  on December 31, 1997,  on a fully  diluted
basis,  equal  to the  total  amount  of rent  deferred.  TWA has not  concluded
agreements with all of its creditors  regarding its proposed debt restructuring.
Thus, it remains uncertain whether TWA will file for protection under Chapter 11
of the Federal Bankruptcy Code.


5.     Viscount Air Services, Inc. (Viscount) Restructuring

As discussed  in the Form 10-K,  the  Partnership  has entered into an agreement
with  Viscount  to defer  certain  rents  due the  Partnership  which  aggregate
$196,800;  to extend a line of credit to Viscount  for a total of $127,000 to be
used primarily for maintenance expenses relating to the Partnership's  aircraft;
and which gives the Partnership the option to acquire  approximately 2.3% of the
issued  and  outstanding  shares of  Viscount  stock as of July 26,  1994 for an
option price of approximately $91,000.

The deferred  rents are being repaid by Viscount  with  interest at a rate of 6%
per annum over the  remaining  terms of the leases.  The unpaid  balances of the
deferred  rents,  which are reflected as rents  receivable in the March 31, 1995
and December 31, 1994 balance sheets, were $168,956 and $182,982,  respectively.
The line of credit, which was advanced to Viscount in full during 1994, is being
repaid by Viscount  over a 30-month  period,  beginning  in January  1995,  with
interest at a rate of 11.53% per annum. The line of credit  balances,  which are
reflected  as notes  receivable  in the March 31,  1995 and  December  31,  1994
balance  sheets,  were  $119,619 and $127,000,  respectively.  Note 9 contains a
further discussion of the Viscount events subsequent to March 31, 1995.


6.     Sale of Aircraft to American International Airways, Inc. (AIA)

The Partnership sold one Boeing 727-200 aircraft and hushkit, formerly leased to
Delta  Airlines  Inc., to AIA in February 1995 for a sales price of  $1,771,805.
The Partnership recorded no gain or loss on the sale as the sales price equalled
the net book value of the aircraft and hushkit. The Partnership agreed to accept
payment of the sales price in 36 monthly installments of $55,000,  with interest
at a rate of 7.5% per annum, beginning in March 1995. The Partnership recorded a
note receivable for the sales price and has received all scheduled principal and
interest  payments  due from AIA through  March 31,  1995.  The note  receivable
balance as of March 31, 1995 was $1,724,188.


7.     Continental Restructuring

On January  26,  1995,  Continental  announced  a number of actual and  proposed
changes in its  operations  and financial  situation.  In connection  with those
changes,  Continental indicated that it was discussing with certain of its major
lenders  modifications  to existing debt  amortization  schedules to enhance the
airline's capital structure. Continental stated that during those discussions it
would not be making  payments to such  lenders and  lessors  otherwise  required
under  the  current  contracts.  The  Partnership  is not  engaged  in any  such
discussions  with  Continental at the present time, and Continental has made all
payments due to the  Partnership  on a current basis to date.  Note 9 contains a
further discussion of the Continental events subsequent to March 31, 1995.

9.     Subsequent Events

Continental  Restructuring - In early April 1995,  Continental announced that it
had successfully  concluded  discussions with The Boeing Company, as well as its
primary lender and the City and County of Denver, that would provide Continental
with  approximately $370 million in cash deferrals and savings over the next two
years,  and that it had  reached a  preliminary  agreement  with  certain of its
lessors for additional cash deferrals.

Viscount  Payment  Delinquency - Viscount is presently past due on certain rent,
deferred rent, maintenance reserve and financing payments due the Partnership in
April and May 1995. The past due payments aggregate  approximately  $76,000. The
Partnership is currently  negotiating an agreement with Viscount whereby certain
of these past due  payments,  in addition to certain  future  payments  due from
Viscount,  may be deferred.  Any agreement for a further deferral as well as any
failure by Viscount to perform its financial  obligations  with the  Partnership
will have an adverse affect on the Partnership's financial position.

Item 2.      Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
             Results of Operations

Polaris  Aircraft Income Fund II (the  Partnership)  owns a portfolio of 23 used
commercial  jet  aircraft  and  certain  inventoried  aircraft  parts out of its
original portfolio of 30 aircraft.  The portfolio consists of one Boeing 737-200
Combi aircraft leased to Northwest Territorial Airways, Ltd. (NWT), 17 McDonnell
Douglas DC-9-30  aircraft and one McDonnell  Douglas DC-9-40  aircraft leased to
Trans World Airlines, Inc. (TWA), one Boeing 737-200 aircraft leased to Viscount
Air Services,  Inc.  (Viscount),  two Boeing 727-200 Advanced aircraft leased to
Continental  Micronesia,  Inc.  (Continental  Micronesia) and one Boeing 727-200
Advanced aircraft leased to Continental Airlines, Inc. (Continental). One engine
owned by Polaris  Aircraft  Income Fund I is leased to Viscount  through a joint
venture with the  Partnership.  The  Partnership  transferred six Boeing 727-200
aircraft,  previously  leased to Pan American World  Airways,  Inc., to aircraft
inventory  in 1992.  These  aircraft  have been  disassembled  for sale of their
component  parts as discussed  in the  Partnership's  1994 Annual  Report to the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission on Form 10-K (Form 10-K).  The  Partnership
sold one  Boeing  727-200  aircraft,  formerly  leased to Delta  Airlines,  Inc.
(Delta), in February 1995 as discussed below.


Remarketing Update

Sale of Aircraft to American International Airways, Inc. (AIA) - The Partnership
sold one Boeing 727-200  aircraft and hushkit,  formerly leased to Delta, to AIA
in February 1995 for a sales price of $1,771,805.  The  Partnership  recorded no
gain or loss on the sale as the sales price  equalled  the net book value of the
aircraft  and hushkit.  The  Partnership  agreed to accept  payment of the sales
price in 36 monthly installments of $55,000, with interest at a rate of 7.5% per
annum,  beginning in March 1995. The Partnership  recorded a note receivable for
the sales price and has received all scheduled  principal and interest  payments
due from AIA. The note receivable balance as of March 31, 1995 was $1,724,188.

Remarketing  of Boeing  737-200 Combi Aircraft - The lease of one Boeing 737-200
Combi  aircraft to NWT expires in October  1995.  The  Partnership  is currently
remarketing this aircraft for re-lease.


Partnership Operations

The  Partnership  recorded  a  net  loss  of  $932,249,  or  $2.10  per  limited
partnership  unit, for the three months ended March 31, 1995,  compared to a net
loss of $1,955,448, or $4.50 per unit, for the same period in 1994. The net loss
for the three months ended March 31, 1994  resulted  from  maintenance  expenses
incurred  from the  Partnership's  leases to TWA. As  described in Item 7 of the
Form  10-K,  the  Partnership  agreed  to  share  the  cost of  meeting  certain
Airworthiness  Directives (ADs) after TWA successfully  reorganized in 1993. The
agreement  stipulates  that such costs  incurred by TWA may be credited  against
monthly  rentals,  subject to annual  limitations  and a maximum of $500,000 per
aircraft  through the end of the leases.  In  accordance  with the cost  sharing
agreement,  during the first  quarter of 1994,  the  Partnership  recognized  as
operating  expense $2.7 million of these AD expenses.  No operating  expense was
recognized for these ADs during the first quarter of 1995.


                                       11

<PAGE>



The net loss in 1995  resulted  primarily  from a  decrease  in  rental  revenue
recognized  from the leases with TWA. As discussed in the Form 10-K,  in October
1994, TWA proposed to its creditors,  including the Partnership, a restructuring
of its debt. In December 1994, GE Capital Aviation  Services,  Inc.  (which,  as
discussed in the Form 10-K, now provides certain management  services to Polaris
Investment   Management   Corporation   (PIMC)  and  Polaris   Aircraft  Leasing
Corporation)  negotiated  a  proposed  standstill  agreement  with TWA which was
approved  on  behalf of the  Partnership  by the  general  partner,  PIMC.  That
agreement  provides for a moratorium on the rent due the Partnership in November
1994 and 75% of the rents due the  Partnership  from December 1994 through March
1995, with the deferred rents, which aggregate $3.6 million plus interest, being
repaid by TWA in monthly  installments  between May 1995 through  December 1995.
The Partnership  will not recognize the deferred rent as rental revenue until it
is received,  including  $2,025,000 deferred in the three months ended March 31,
1995. Partially offsetting the decline in rental revenue during 1995 as compared
to 1994, the Partnership  received  $218,171 as consideration  for the agreement
with TWA. The  Partnership  recognized  the $218,171 as other revenue during the
first quarter of 1995.


Liquidity and Cash Distributions

Liquidity  - The  Partnership  has  received  all lease  payments  due from NWT,
Continental  and  Continental  Micronesia.  As discussed  in the Form 10-K,  the
Partnership  entered into an agreement  with  Viscount  under which it agreed to
defer certain rents due the  Partnership on one aircraft.  These deferred rents,
which  aggregate  $196,800,  are being repaid by Viscount with interest over the
remaining term of the lease.  The agreement with Viscount also  stipulates  that
the  Partnership  advance  Viscount up to $127,000,  primarily  for  maintenance
expenses  incurred  by  Viscount  relating  to the  Partnership's  aircraft.  In
accordance with the agreement, the Partnership advanced Viscount $127,000 during
1994 which is being  repaid by Viscount  with  interest  over a 30-month  period
beginning in January 1995.

Viscount is  presently  past due on certain  rent,  deferred  rent,  maintenance
reserve and financing  payments due the  Partnership  in April and May 1995. The
past due payments aggregate  approximately $76,000. The Partnership is currently
negotiating an agreement with Viscount  whereby  certain of these  payments,  in
addition to certain  future  payments due from  Viscount,  may be deferred.  Any
agreement  for a further  deferral as well as any failure by Viscount to perform
its financial  obligations  with the Partnership  will have an adverse affect on
the Partnership's financial position.

As previously  discussed,  the Partnership and TWA agreed to defer certain rents
due the  Partnership  totaling $3.6 million,  to be repaid by TWA, with interest
beginning in May 1995 through December 1995. Until the deferred rents are repaid
by  TWA in  full,  the  negative  impact  on the  Partnership's  cash  flows  is
significant.

As discussed above and in the Form 10-K, during 1994 and 1993 TWA offset a total
of $6.3 million  against rental  payments due the  Partnership  for expenses TWA
incurred for certain ADs on the  Partnership's  aircraft.  TWA may offset rental
payments  due the  Partnership  for the ADs up to an  additional  $2.7  million,
subject to annual limitations, over the lease terms.

As  specified  in the  Partnership's  leases  with  Continental  Micronesia  and
Continental,  in January 1994, the Partnership reimbursed Continental (partially
on behalf of its affiliate Continental  Micronesia) an aggregate of $1.8 million
for cockpit modifications and $742,325 for C-check labor and parts for the three
aircraft. In addition, in January 1994, the Partnership financed an aggregate of
$2,177,533 for new image modifications, which is being repaid with interest over
the terms of the aircraft  leases.  The leases with  Continental and Continental
Micronesia  also  stipulate  that the  Partnership  share in the cost of meeting
certain ADs, which cannot be estimated at this time.


                                       12

<PAGE>



As  discussed  in the Form 10-K,  ALG,  Inc.  (ALG) was  required  to pay to the
Partnership  a balloon  payment of $897,932 in January 1995 on their  promissory
note.  ALG paid to the  Partnership  $19,138 of the  balloon  payment in January
1995,  originating an event of default under the note. The  Partnership  and ALG
subsequently  restructured  the terms of the promissory  note. The  renegotiated
terms specify  payment by ALG of the note balance with interest at a rate of 13%
per annum with one lump sum payment in January 1995 of $254,733,  eleven monthly
payments of $25,600 beginning in February 1995, and a balloon payment in January
1996 of  $416,631.  The  Partnership  has received  all  scheduled  renegotiated
payments due from ALG.

The Partnership sold one Boeing 727-200 aircraft  equipped with a hushkit to AIA
in February  1995 as  previously  discussed.  The  agreement  with AIA specifies
payment of the sales price in 36 monthly  installments  of $55,000  beginning in
March 1995. The Partnership has received all scheduled payments due from AIA.

The  Partnership  receives  maintenance  reserve  payments  from  certain of its
lessees that may be  reimbursed to the lessee or applied  against  certain costs
incurred by the Partnership for maintenance work performed on the  Partnership's
aircraft, as specified in the leases.  Maintenance reserve balances remaining at
the  termination  of the lease may be used by the  Partnership  to offset future
maintenance  expenses or  recognized  as revenue.  The net  maintenance  reserve
balances aggregate $770,674 as of March 31, 1995.

Payments of $17,663 have been  received  during the three months ended March 31,
1995 from the sale of inventoried  parts from the six disassembled  aircraft and
have been applied against aircraft  inventory.  The Partnership's  cash reserves
are  being   retained  to  cover  the   Partnership's   normal   operating   and
administrative  expenses and to meet obligations under the TWA,  Continental and
Continental Micronesia lease agreements.

Cash  Distributions - Cash  distributions  to limited  partners during the three
months  ended  March 31,  1995 and 1994 were  $1,249,993,  or $2.50 per  limited
partnership unit and $3,124,981 or $6.25 per unit, respectively.  The timing and

in its  operations  and financial  situation.  In early April 1995,  Continental
announced  that  it had  successfully  concluded  discussions  with  The  Boeing
Company,  as well as its primary lender and the City and County of Denver,  that
would provide  Continental with approximately $370 million in cash deferrals and
savings over the next two years, and that it had reached a preliminary agreement
with certain of its lessors for additional cash deferrals.
