NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
-------------------------------
BASIS OF PRESENTATION - The accompanying unaudited financial statements
reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
which are, in the opinion of the Partnership's management, necessary for a
fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for
the presented periods. The results of operations for such interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year.
The December 31, 1998 balance sheet included herein is taken from the
audited financial statements included in the Partnership's Annual Report
and incorporated by reference in the Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1998. The statements should be read in conjunction with the Organiza-
tion and Significant Accounting Policies and other notes to financial
statements included in the Partnership's Annual Report for the year ended
December 31, 1998.
2. NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT
---------------------------------------
Net Income Per Limited Partnership Unit is computed by dividing the net
income allocated to the Limited Partners by the weighted average of the
units outstanding (4,625,000).
3. INCOME TAXES
------------
In January 1998, the Partnership made an election to pay an annual combined
federal and state tax at the Partnership level of 4.5% tax on its gross
income beginning January 1, 1998. The election was made in order to avoid a
limitation on the public trading of the Partnership's units.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Partnership presently has three long-term debt facilities. At June 30,
1999, the following amounts were outstanding: $4.8 million on a 7.4%
non-recourse note collateralized by one aircraft leased to FedEx; $4.4 million
on a 9.35% non-recourse note collateralized by one aircraft on lease to Trans
World Airlines; and $3.5 million on a long-term variable rate revolving loan
facility guaranteed by the Partnership and collateralized by two aircraft on
lease to USAirways. At June 30, 1999 approximately $5.7 million remains
available under the revolving loan facility.
At June 30, 1999, long-term borrowings of $12.8 million represented 10.5% of the
original cost of the aircraft presently owned by the partnership, including
capital expenditures for upgrades. The terms of the Partnership Agreement permit
debt to be at a level not exceeding 50% of such cost.
Cash distributions paid in the first six months of 1999 were $0.82 per limited
partnership unit, representing the regular fourth-quarter and the regular first-
quarter cash distributions, both distributions were for $0.41 a unit.
In June 1999, the Partnership declared a second-quarter 1999 cash
distribution of $0.41 per unit totaling $1,915,404 payable on August 13, 1999,
to unitholders of record on June 30, 1999. Since this distribution was in
excess of earnings, Partnership equity declined to $56.8 million at June 30,
1999, and limited partner equity per unit declined to $12.16. The portion of
the distribution in excess of net income constitutes a return of capital. The
1998 second-quarter cash distribution was $0.41 per unit.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Airlease earned $1,157,000 in the second quarter ended June 30, 1999, a
decrease of $33,000 or 3% from 1998 second quarter earnings of $1,190,000.
Second-quarter revenues were $1,928,000, compared with last year's second
quarter revenues of $2,122,000.
Net Income for the first six-months of 1999 was $2,349,000, compared with net
income of $2,486,000 for the first six months of 1998. Revenues for the first
half of 1999 were $3,910,000, compared with revenues of $4,292,000 for the first
half of 1998.
The revenue reduction in the first half of 1999 is primarily due to the
scheduled decline in finance lease income as the balances due from the lessees
declined (smaller asset base.)
Expenses for the first six months of 1999 were $1,561,000 or $245,000 lower
than expenses for the first six months of 1998 of $1,806,000. The decline in
expenses is primarily due to lower interest expense in 1999 as a result of the
Partnership's reduced debt balances and lower interest rates.

Portfolio Matters
- -----------------
As of June 30, 1999 the partnership's portfolio consisted entirely of Stage
III aircraft; six are MD 82s and one is a 727-200 FH. Stage-III aircraft meet
the FAA noise compliance regulations for aircraft operated in the continental
United States after December 31, 1999.
Forward-Looking Statements
- --------------------------
The information set forth in this quarterly report contains certain forward-
looking statements, which reflect the current view of the partnership with
respect to future events and financial performance. The words, "expect",
"intent", "believe", "anticipate", "likely" and "will" and similar expressions
generally identify forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results, and events to
differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements.
Factors that could cause the partnership's actual results to differ from current
expectations include, among others, changes in the aircraft or aircraft leasing
market, economic downturn in the airline industry, default by lessees under
leases causing the partnership to incur uncontemplated expenses or not to
receive rental income as and when expected, acquisition or disposition of
aircraft, changes in interest rates and legislative or regulatory changes that
adversely affect the value of aircraft.
