The Board of Directors
Pacific Aerospace & Electronics, Inc.
We consent to incorporation by reference in the registration statements
on Form S-8, registrations statement numbers 333-29007, 333-39799, 333-66469,

41407, 333-66471, 333-35382, and 333-5011, of Pacific Aerospace & Electronics,
Inc., of our report dated July 28, 2000, relating to the consolidated balance
sheets of Pacific Aerospace & Electronics, Inc. and subsidiaries as of May 31,
1999 and 2000 and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three year
period ended May 31, 2000, which report appears in the May 31, 2000 annual
report on Form 10-K/A of Pacific Aerospace & Electronics, Inc.
Our report dated July 28, 2000 contains an explanatory paragraph that
states that the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, which
raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of that uncertainty.
