Midway Airlines  Corporation,  a Delaware  corporation  (the  "Company"),  whose
principal  executive  offices  are  located  at 2801  Slater  Road,  Suite  200,
Morrisville, NC 27560.


ITEM 2:  IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

         The person  filing this  Schedule 13D is John P. Sall,  whose  business
address is SAS Campus Drive, Cary, North Carolina 27513.

ITEM 3: SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

         Funds that were used to acquire the  additional  shares of Common Stock
as outlined in Item 4 below were personal funds.

ITEM 4:  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

     In connection with the Company's rights offering, which expired on July 26,
2000, Mr. Sall purchased an additional  1,944,766  shares of the Common Stock at
$5.20 per  share.  Due to the  exercise  of  over-subscription  privileges,  the
determination  of the  actual  number of shares  purchased  was  determined  and
released by the Corporation on August 2, 2000.

     In the future,  Mr. Sall may elect to buy additional shares of Common Stock
from time to time or at any time in brokerage transactions on the open market or
in privately negotiated transactions,  if appropriate opportunities to do so are
available, on such terms as he considers desirable,  depending on his continuing
assessment of certain  factors,  including,  without  limitation:  the Company's
business,  financial condition,  results of operations and prospects; changes in
the laws and regulations of the United States and the various states  concerning
or affecting airlines generally and the Company specifically; other business and
investment  opportunities  available; the prices at which shares of Common Stock
are  trading;  general  economic  conditions;  and stock market and money market
conditions.  Mr. Sall and James H. Goodnight,  Ph.D. may act in conjunction with
each other with respect to their  respective  investments  in the Company and in
deciding what future action either or both of them should undertake with respect
to their interests.

ITEM 5: INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

         As of the  date  hereof,  Mr.  Sall  beneficially  owns  3,278,194,  or
approximately  21.6%,  of the shares of Common  Stock  outstanding,  based on an
aggregate of 15,174,755 shares outstanding

following the rights  offering.  Mr. Sall has sole voting and dispositive  power
with respect to all of these shares.

     Mr. Sall may,  under rules and  regulations  of the Securities and Exchange
Commission,  be deemed to share  voting and  dispositive  power as to the shares
owned by Dr.  goodnight.  In that  case,  Mr.  Sall  would own an  aggregate  of
10,027,421  shares  of Common  Stock,  or 66.1% of the  shares  of Common  Stock
outstanding.  Mr. Sall  disclaims  beneficial  ownership of the shares of Common
Stock owned by Dr. Goodnight.


                                    * * * * *

     After  reasonable  inquiry and to the best of my  knowledge  and belief,  I
certify that the information  set forth in this statement is true,  complete and
correct.
