             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

      The   Partnership  has  an  investment  in  a  joint  venture  with  other
partnerships  sponsored  by the  General  Partner.  (See  Note 4 for  additional
information relating to the joint venture.)

4.    Investment in Joint Venture

      In March 1997 the  Partnership,  ICON Cash Flow  Partners  L.P. Six ("L.P.
Six"),  and ICON Cash Flow Partners L.P. Seven ("L.P.  Seven"),  contributed and
assigned  equipment  lease  and  finance   receivables  and  residuals  to  ICON
Receivables 1997-A L.L.C.  ("1997-A"),  a special purpose entity created for the
purpose  of  originating  leases,   managing  existing  contributed  assets  and
securitizing  its portfolio.  In September  1997 ICON Cash Flow Partners,  L.P.,
Series  E  ("Series  E"),  L.P.  Six and L.P.  Seven  contributed  and  assigned
additional  equipment lease and finance receivables and residuals to 1997-A. The
Partnership, Series E, L.P. Six and L.P. Seven received a 17.81%, 31.19%, 31.03%
and 19.97% interest, respectively, in 1997-A based on the present value of their
related contributions.  In September 1997, 1997-A securitized  substantially all
of its equipment leases and finance receivables and residuals. 1997-A became the
beneficial owner of a trust. The Partnership's  original investment was recorded
at cost and is  adjusted  by its share of  earnings,  losses  and  distributions
thereafter.

      Information  as to the  financial  position and results of  operations  of
1997-A as of and for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 is summarized below:

                               September 30, 2000

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

     The  Partnership's  portfolio  consisted  of a net  investment  in  finance
leases,  operating  lease,  financings  and investment in  unconsolidated  joint
venture,  representing  21%, 38%, 30% and 11% of total  investments at September
30,  2000,  respectively,  and  24%,  54%,  15% and 7% of total  investments  at
September 30, 1999, respectively.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 and 1999

     Revenues  for the three  months  ended  September  30, 2000 were  $946,824,
representing  an  increase  of  $456,260  from 1999.  The  increase  in revenues
resulted  from an increase  in gain on sales of  equipment  of  $541,850  and an
increase in finance  income of $89,414.  The increase was partially  offset by a
loss from  investments in joint venture of $93,899 in 2000 versus income in 1999
of  $40,994  and a  decrease  in  rental  income  of  $29,472.  Gain on sales of
equipment  increased  due to the sale of a DHC-8  aircraft  in the 2000  period.
Finance income  increased due to a higher level of renewal rents received in the
2000  period.  The loss  from  investment  in  joint  venture  in 2000  resulted
primarily  from a provision for bad debt of $500,000 being recorded in the third
quarter of 2000 by the underlying joint venture,  ICON Receivables 1997-A L.L.C.
("1997-A").  There was no  provision  for bad debt  recorded  in the 1999  third
quarter.  Rental income  decreased due to the sale of the DHC-8 aircraft  during
the third quarter of 2000.

     Expenses  for the three  months  ended  September  30, 2000 were  $321,115,
representing a decrease of $130,418 from 1999. The decrease in expenses resulted
primarily from decreases in management fees of $45,395,  administrative  expense
reimbursement  - General  Partner  of  $26,867,  depreciation  of  $31,175,  and
interest  expense of  $18,863.  The  decreases  in  management  fee  expense and
administrative expense reimbursements  resulted from the General Partner waiving
its  right  to  receive  future  management  fees  and  expense   reimbursements
commencing July 1, 2000. Depreciation expense decreased due to sale of the DHC-8
aircraft in the third quarter of 2000. Interest expense decreased as a result of
a lower  three month  average  outstanding  debt  balance in 2000 as compared to
1999.

     Net income  for the three  months  ended  September  30,  2000 and 1999 was
$625,709 and $39,031,  respectively. The net income per weighted average limited
partnership unit was $1.55 and $.10 for 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000 and 1999

     Revenues  for the nine months  ended  September  30, 2000 were  $1,863,972,
representing a decrease of $58,296 from 1999. The decrease in revenues  resulted
primarily  from a decrease  in income  from  investments  in joint  ventures  of
$160,735  and a  decrease  in  finance  income of  $124,405.  The  decrease  was
partially offset by an increase in gain on sales of equipment of $262,715, which
increased  due to the sale of a DHC-8  aircraft  in the third  quarter  of 2000.
Income from investment in joint venture decreased  primarily due to the $500,000
provision  for bad debt being  recorded  by 1997-A in the third  quarter of 2000
with no provision for bad debt being recorded in 1999.  Finance income decreased
due to a decrease in the average  size of the finance  lease  portfolio  in 2000
compared to 1999.

                     ICON Cash Flow Partners, L.P., Series D
                        (A Delaware Limited Partnership)

     Expenses  for the nine months  ended  September  30,  2000 were  $1,158,233
representing a decrease of $263,459 from 1999. The decrease in expenses resulted
primarily from decreases in management fees of $97,114, depreciation of $73,419,
administrative  expense reimbursement - General Partner of $74,284, and interest
of $40,119.  These decreases were partially offset by an increase in general and
administrative  expenses of $35,424. The decreases in management fee expense and
administrative expense reimbursements  resulted from the General Partner waiving
its  right  to  receive  future  management  fees  and  expense   reimbursements
commencing  July 1, 2000 and a decrease in the average size of the finance lease
portfolio from 1999 to 2000.  Depreciation  expense decreased due to the sale of
the DHC-8 aircraft in the third quarter of 2000. Interest expense decreased as a
result  of a lower  nine  month  average  outstanding  debt  balance  in 2000 as
compared to 1999. General and  administrative  expenses increased as a result of
higher professional fees in the first half of 2000 as compared to the first half
of 1999.

     Net  income  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2000 and 1999 was
$705,739 and $500,576, respectively. The net income per weighted average limited
partnership unit was $1.75 and $1.24 for 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The  Partnership's  primary  sources  for funds for the nine  months  ended
September  30,  2000 and 1999 were net cash  provided by sales of  equipment  of
$4,699,107  and  $3,814,550  and cash provided by  operations of $1,023,172  and
$1,189,084,  respectively.  These funds were used to fund cash distributions and
to make payments on borrowings.  Cash  distributions to the limited partners for
the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2000 and 1999  totaled  $2,295,007  and
$2,062,072, respectively. The Partnership made a cash distribution on October 1,
2000 of $1,814,175 representing proceeds from the sale of the DHC-8 aircraft and
cash generated from operations.

     The Partnership's  reinvestment  period ended June 5, 1997. The disposition
period began on June 6, 1997. During the disposition period the Partnership has,
and will  continue  to  distribute  substantially  all  distributable  cash from
operations  and  equipment  sales  to the  partners  and  continue  the  orderly
termination of its operations and affairs. The Partnership has not, and will not
invest in any additional  finance or lease  transactions  during the disposition
period.  During the disposition period the Partnership  expects to recover, at a
minimum, the carrying value of its assets.

     As a result of the  Partnership's  entering  into the  disposition  period,
future monthly  distributions  could, and are expected to fluctuate depending on
the amount of asset sale and re-lease proceeds received during that period.

     As of September 30, 2000, except as noted above, there were no known trends
or demands,  commitments,  events or uncertainties  which are likely to have any
material  effect on liquidity.  As cash is realized from operations and sales of
equipment,  the Partnership  will distribute  substantially  all available cash,
after retaining  sufficient cash to meet its reserve  requirements and recurring
obligations.
