              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)
                                 March 31, 1996

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three month
period ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996.  For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Landair Services, Inc. annual report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1995.

NOTE 2 - NET INCOME PER SHARE

Net income per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of
common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period.
Common stock equivalents consist of outstanding stock options and have been
included in the calculation of net income per share using the treasury stock
method.

NOTE 3 - INCOME TAXES

For the three month periods ended March 31, 1996 and March 31, 1995, the
effective income tax rate varied from the statutory federal income tax rate of
34% primarily due to the effect of state income taxes, net of the federal
benefit, and permanent differences (principally meals and entertainment).

NOTE 4 - CONTINGENCIES

The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the normal
course of its business, most of which involve claims for personal injury and
property damage incurred in connection with the transportation of freight.
Management believes none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate,
will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of
operations of the Company.

</TABLE>


Results of Operations

Operating revenue increased by $1.2 million, or 3%, to $37.0 million in 1996
from $35.7 million in 1995.  The Company's increased operating revenue reflects
additional volume from its Forward Air operations, which increased 18% during
the first quarter of 1996 compared to the prior year.  This was offset by a
decrease in Truckload and Dedicated operating revenue of 7%, caused by severe
winter storms in January and February 1996, which idled a significant portion
of the Company's fleet, negatively impacting equipment utilization.

The operating ratio (operating expenses as a percent of operating revenue) for
the first quarter of 1996 was 95.5% compared to 94.8% in the prior year
quarter.  The components of operating expenses fluctuate between periods
primarily because of the ratio of owner-operators to Company-operated
equipment.  Except as explained below, operating expenses in the aggregate
generally reflect increases proportionate to the increased level of operations.

Effective February 1996, the Company no longer pays per diem to line-haul
drivers as reimbursement for expenses incurred for out-of-town travel.
Instead, these drivers now receive 

                                      7

<PAGE>   8



a higher pay rate per mile.  The effect of this change caused a slight
increase in the Company's salaries, wages and employee benefits expense during
the first quarter of 1996. 

Operating leases decreased from 4.5% of operating revenue during the first
quarter of 1995 to 3.5% during the same period of 1996, while depreciation and
amortization increased from 5.7% of operating revenue during the first quarter
of 1995 to 7.1% in the same period of 1996.  These changes from the prior year
resulted from increased ownership, rather than leasing, of revenue equipment
along with an increase in the ratio of Company-operated equipment to
owner-operators.

During the first quarter of 1996, fuel prices increased by approximately 10%
over the prior year which increased fuel and fuel taxes by approximately
$265,000.  Included in income from operations for the first quarter of 1995
were gains on the sale of revenue equipment in the amount of $320,000 compared
to $68,000 for the same period in 1996.

Interest expense as a percentage of revenue increased from 1.9% in the first
quarter of 1995 to 2.2% in 1996.  The increase is attributable to higher net
borrowing primarily for revenue equipment purchases which were required to
finance the continued growth of the Company.

The effective tax rates for the first quarter of 1996 and 1995 were 39% and
43%, respectively.  The decrease in 1996 is primarily due to a significant
reduction in the Company's nondeductible meals and entertainment expense, which
were only partially deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes,
resulting from discontinuance of the per diem pay to line-haul drivers.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

Cash flows from operations were $1.8 million for the first quarter of 1996
compared with $2.8 million in the same period of 1995.  The $1.0 million
decrease was a result of increases in working capital accounts.   Management
believes available borrowing under existing lines of credit, future borrowing
under installment notes for revenue equipment, and cash generated by operations
will be sufficient to fund its cash needs and anticipated capital expenditures
through 1996.
