                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
                                   -----------


1.       Basis of Presentation:

         The condensed  financial  statements included herein have been prepared
         by CCAIR,  Inc. (the "Company"),  without audit,  pursuant to the rules
         and  regulations  of the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission.  These
         condensed  financial  statements  reflect all adjustments which are, in
         the opinion of  management,  necessary for a fair  statement of results
         for the interim  period.  These  adjustments  consist  solely of normal
         recurring  adjustments.  Certain  information and footnote  disclosures
         normally  included in the financial  statements  prepared in accordance
         with generally  accepted  accounting  principles have been condensed or
         omitted  pursuant to such rules and  regulations,  although the Company
         believes  that the  disclosures  are  adequate to make the  information
         presented  not  misleading.   It  is  suggested  that  these  condensed
         financial   statements  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the  financial
         statements  and the notes  thereto  included  in the  Company's  annual
         report for fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.


2.       Earnings Per Common Share:

         The  computation  of earnings per common share is based on the weighted
         average  number of common  shares  outstanding  for each period,  after
         considering the effect of common stock equivalents.


3.       Commitments and Contingencies:

         The Company is subject to the regulatory  authority,  among others,  of
         the   Federal   Aviation   Administration   and   the   Department   of
         Transportation.  These agencies require compliance with their standards
         and conduct safety and compliance audits.  Violations, if any, of these
         regulations  subject the Company to fines or sanctions.  The Company is
         also  subject  to  other  claims  arising  in the  ordinary  course  of
         business.  In the opinion of  management,  the outcome of these matters
         would not have a material  adverse  impact on the  Company's  financial
         condition or results of operations.




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



General

         In the  three-month  period  ended  September  30,  1996,  the  Company
recorded  net  income of  $320,762,  or $.04 per  share,  versus a net income of
$378,694,  or $.05 per share in the comparable  period of fiscal 1996.  Although
the Company generated significant revenue increases of 7.0% in the quarter ended
September  30, 1996 as compared to the quarter ended  September  30, 1995,  this
improvement  was offset by increased  fuel expense and increased fees for ground
operations and commissions.


Results of Operations

         The following table sets forth selected  operating  comparisons for the
three-month period ended September 30, 1996 and 1995:

                            Ended September 30, 1995

         For the quarter ended  September 30, 1996,  the Company  experienced an
improvement  in operating  revenue as a 6.5% increase in  passengers  and a 4.7%
increase in the average  passenger  trip resulted in a 11.4% increase in revenue
passenger  miles ("RPMs").  Available seat miles ("ASMs")  increased 2.9% in the
first quarter of fiscal 1997 over the comparable period in fiscal 1996. This ASM
increase was primarily the result of one additional  Jetstream 31 aircraft added
in the second  quarter of fiscal 1996.  As a result of the increased  RPMs,  the
Company's  load factor  increased from 43.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 1996
to 47.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997.

         Although  the  Company  experienced  a small  2.2%  decline  in  yield,
primarily due to aggressive fare  discounting  during the July 4th and Labor Day
holidays,  passenger  revenues were up 8.9%. Public service revenue was $187,070
in fiscal 1996, but the Company ceased service to Danville, Virginia in October,
1995  and  ceased  to  receive  subsidized  compensation  in  Shenandoah  Valley
effective  July, 1996 and thus  anticipates  receiving no public service revenue
during fiscal 1997. Other revenue (freight and mail) decreased $66,190.

Flight operations expenses per ASM decreased 0.1(cent) in the current quarter as
compared to the prior year, as pilots'  salaries and related cost increases were
offset be reduced Jetstream 31 lease expense. Fuel costs increased 0.5(cent) per
ASM in the first  quarter of fiscal  1997 as  compared  to the first  quarter of
fiscal  1996,  as the cost per  gallon  of fuel  increased  from  66.8(cent)  to
83.4(cent).  Maintenance,  general and administrative  expenses and depreciation
remained constant on a unit basis. Ground operations expense increased 0.3(cent)
per ASM and advertising and commissions  increased  0.2(cent) per ASM due to the
increased  number of passengers and increased  handling and service fees charged
by USAir.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The cash position of the Company remains critical at September 30, 1996. The key
element to improved operating results will be the level of the yield per revenue
passenger mile. While the yield for October,  1996 has met Company  projections,
the yield  could be  affected  by fare  discounting  beyond  the  control of the
Company.  If  operating  cash  flows  and  the  Company's  Line  of  Credit  are
insufficient  to meet  obligations,  the  Company  has these  financing  sources
available:  issuance of stock,  short-term  loans from  officers and  directors,
extending terms with trade creditors and restructuring aircraft lease payments.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $171,000 during the first three months of
fiscal 1997. Cash generated from operating activities was $1,180,000.  The major
sources  of  operating  cash  were net  income  of  $321,000,  depreciation  and
amortization of $1,366,000 and the reduction in accounts receivable of $555,000.
The major operating cash use was the reduction in accounts payable of $706,000.

The capital  expenditures of $1,078,000  during the three months ended September
30, 1996 resulted  primarily from  expenditures on major overhaul of engines and
on major  spare  parts and  assemblies.  Capital  expenditures  planned  for the
remainder of the fiscal year consist of scheduled  major overhaul of engines and
on major  spare  parts and  assemblies.  The Company  also made  scheduled  debt
payments of $326,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1996.
