                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)



1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
   prepared by K & F Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") pursuant
   to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, in the
   opinion of the Company, include all adjustments (consisting of normal
   recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position,
   results of operations and cash flows.  Certain information and footnote
   disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
   with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
   pursuant to such SEC rules.  The Company believes that the disclosures made
   are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  The
   consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended
   September 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
   expected for the full year.  It is suggested that these financial statements
   be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes
   thereto included in the Company's March 31, 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

                    K & F INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (CONTINUED)


   The Company customarily sells original wheel and brake equipment below cost
   as an investment in a new airframe which is expected to be recovered through
   the subsequent sale of replacement parts.  These commercial investments
   (losses) are recognized when original equipment is shipped.  Losses on U.S.
   Government contracts are immediately recognized in full when determinable.

   Inventory is stated at average cost, not in excess of net realizable value.
   In accordance with industry practice, inventoried costs may contain amounts
   relating to contracts with long production cycles, a portion of which will
   not be realized within one year.

4. Other current liabilities consist of the following:

5. Contingencies

   There are various lawsuits and claims pending against the Company incidental
   to its business.  Although the final results in such suits and proceedings
   cannot be predicted with certainty, in the opinion of management, the
   ultimate liability, if any, will not have a material adverse effect on the
   Company.

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


Comparison of Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended September 30, 1995
and September 30, 1994


Sales for the first half of fiscal year 1996 totaled $131,486,000 reflecting an
increase of $16,343,000 or 14.2% compared with $115,143,000 for the same period
in the prior year.  This increase was due to higher commercial sales of
$8,593,000 primarily on the DC-9, DC-10, Fo-100 and MD-80 programs and higher
military sales of $7,750,000 on various programs.

Operating income increased 34.3% to $22,249,000 or 16.9% of sales for the first
half of fiscal year 1996 compared with $16,566,000 or 14.4% of sales for the
same period in the prior year.  Operating margins increased primarily due to
operating efficiencies, the overhead absorption effect relating to the higher
sales volume and lower independent research and development costs on the A-321
and MD-90 programs.  Partially offsetting this increase were higher shipments
of original equipment to airframe manufacturers at or below the cost of
production.

Interest expense decreased $3,951,000 for the first half of fiscal year 1996
compared with the same period in the prior year.  This decrease was primarily
due to the retirement of the 14 3/4% Subordinated Convertible Debentures in the
second quarter of fiscal year 1995.

Approximately 380 hourly employees of the Company's Aircraft Braking Systems
subsidiary are represented by the United Auto Workers' Union.  Aircraft Braking
Systems' three-year contract with the United Auto Workers' Union expired on
August 10, 1991.  Aircraft Braking Systems has not had a  ratified collective
bargaining agreement since August 10, 1991, but has operated under Company
implemented terms and conditions of employment.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30,
1995 and September 30, 1994

Sales for the second quarter of fiscal year 1996 totaled $69,193,000 reflecting
an increase of $11,761,000 or 20.5% compared with $57,432,000 for the same
period in the prior year.  This increase was due to higher commercial sales of
$8,000,000 primarily on the DC-9, DC-10, Fo-100 and MD-80 programs and higher
military sales of $3,761,000 on various programs.

Operating income increased 42.8% to $13,122,000 or 19.0% of sales for the
second quarter of fiscal year 1996 compared with $9,188,000 or 16.0% of sales
for the same period in the prior year.  Operating margins increased primarily
due to operating efficiencies and the overhead absorption effect relating to
the higher sales volume.  Partially offsetting this increase were higher
shipments of original equipment to airframe manufacturers at or below the cost
of production.

Interest expense decreased $1,599,000 for the second quarter of fiscal year
1996 compared with the same period in the prior year.  This decrease was
primarily due to the retirement of the 14 3/4% Subordinated Convertible
Debentures in the second quarter of fiscal year 1995.

Liquidity and Financial Condition

The Company expects that its principal use of funds for the next several years
will be to pay interest and principal on indebtedness, fund capital
expenditures and make investments in equipment for new airframes.  Debt
amortization commences August 1, 1999.  The Company's management believes that
it will have adequate resources to meet its cash requirements through funds
generated from operations and borrowings under its $70 million revolving credit
facility (maturing April 27, 1997, which is subject to a borrowing base of a
portion of eligible accounts receivable and inventory).  At September 30, 1995,
the Company had no outstanding borrowings and $57.6 million available under its
revolving credit facility.

Bookings

Bookings for the first half of fiscal year 1996 totaled $121,829,000 reflecting
an increase of $6,493,000 or 5.6% compared with $115,336,000 for the same
period in the prior year.  This increase is primarily due to higher commercial
bookings of $16,000,000 reflecting a generally stronger demand for replacement
parts on the Company's wheel and brake programs.  Partially offsetting this
increase were lower military bookings due to delays in the receipt of expected
orders.
