                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (unaudited)


1.    Management believes that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of
      results have been included in the Condensed Financial Statements for the
      interim periods presented, which are unaudited. The preparation of
      financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
      principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
      affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
      contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
      and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
      period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the results
      of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000 are not
      necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
      December 31, 2000.

      These interim period Condensed Financial Statements and accompanying
      footnotes should be read in conjuction with the Financial Statements
      contained in World Airways' Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year
      ended December 31, 1999.

2.    Notes Payable

      The Company has a Credit Agreement with GMAC Financial Corporation
      ("GMAC") expiring in March 2001. The Agreement contains covenants related
      to the Company's financial condition and operating results. The Company
      was not in compliance with two of the covenants at March 31, 2000, but it
      subsequently obtained approval for a waiver Amendment for them from GMAC.

3.    Subsequent Events

      At March 31, 2000, World Airways had 10.2 million shares of Common Stock
      outstanding, including 3.7 million restricted shares given to employees
      pursuant to the Employee Salary Exchange Program, which began in February
      2000. Approximately 66% of the stock is publicly held and 21.6% is held by
      WorldCorp, Inc ("WorldCorp"). On April 26, 2000 WorldCorp's Bankruptcy
      Plan of Liquidation was approved and it is now expected that WorldCorp's
      remaining ownership interest in World Airways will be distributed to
      WorldCorp's creditors.

      In April 2000 World Airways was informed by NASDAQ that it no longer met
      one of the requirements for continued listing on The NASDAQ SmallCap
      Market. Subsequently the Company provided NASDAQ with information on the
      Company's plan to achieve compliance with the listing requirement, and it
      believes it has presented a good case to remain listed. If, after
      reviewing the information provided, NASDAQ determines that the Company's
      continued listing is not warranted, it is expected a delisting process
      will follow. If the Common Stock is delisted from the SmallCap Market, the
      Company will seek to be listed on the NASDAQ Bulletin Board or an
      alternative national stock exchange.

      In May 2000 World Airways received $7 million as a result of a
      comprehensive settlement with Malaysian Airline System Berhad ("Malaysian
      Airlines") related to a number of aircraft lease and operating agreements,
      the last of which was terminated in 1999. The $7 million will be recorded
      as a gain in the second quarter of 2000.

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

Part I, Item 2 of this report should be read in conjunction with Part II, Item 7
of World Airways, Inc. ("World Airways" or "the Company") Annual Report on Form
10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 1999. The information contained herein is
not a comprehensive management overview and analysis of the financial condition
and results of operations of the Company, but rather updates disclosures made in
the aforementioned filing.

The Company desires to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"). Therefore, this
report contains forward looking statements that are subject to risks and
uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the reliance on key strategic
alliances, fluctuations in operating results and other risks detailed from time
to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
These risks could cause the Company's actual results for 1999 and beyond to
differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made
by, or on behalf of, the Company.

OVERVIEW

General

For the first quarter of 2000, the Company's operating revenues were $62.0
million, the operating loss was $3.9 million, the net loss was $4.8 million and
the loss per share was $0.60 for both basic and diluted earnings per share
("EPS"). For the comparable period in 1999 the operating revenues were $65.3
million, the operating loss was $2.2 million, the net loss was $2.7 million and
the basic and diluted EPS was a loss of $0.39.

Significant Customer Relationships

During the first three months of 2000, the Company's business relied heavily on
its contracts with the U.S. Air Force's ("USAF") Air Mobility Command ("AMC")
and Garuda. In 2000 these customers provided approximately 43.6% and 25.3%,
respectively, of the Company's revenues and 30.5% and 33.3%, respectively, of
block hours flown. In 1999 AMC and Malaysian Airlines provided approximately
69.8% and 15.4%, respectively, of the Company's revenues and 57.2% and 13.1%,
respectively, of block hours flown.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1999

Total block hours decreased 1,021 hours, or 12.2%, to 7,321 hours in the first
quarter of 2000 from 8,342 hours in 1999, with an average of 10.0 available
aircraft in 2000 and 12.0 available aircraft in 1999. Average daily utilization
(block hours flown per day per aircraft) was 8.1 hours in 2000 and 7.7 hours in
1999. In 2000 wet lease, or ACMI, contracts accounted for 57.2% of the block
hours, a decrease from 63.6% in 1999. The decrease in ACMI hours reflects an
increase in passenger flying that partially offset a decrease in cargo flying.
Cargo ACMI flying decreased primarily as a result of not flying for Malaysian
Airlines in 2000. In 2000 full service flying accounted for 41.1% of the block
hours, an increase from 34.3% in 1999, because of flying for Renaissance
Cruises.

Operating Revenues. Revenues from flight operations decreased $3.4 million, or
5.1%, to $61.8 million in 2000 from $65.2 million in 1999. This decrease is
primarily due to the decrease in aircraft and block hours flown in 2000.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses decreased $1.6 million, or 2.4%, in
2000 to $65.9 million from $67.5 million in 1999.

Flight operations expenses include all expenses related directly to the
operation of the aircraft other than aircraft cost, fuel and maintenance. Also
included are expenses related to flight dispatch and flight operations
administration. Flight operations expenses decreased $1.4 million, or 7.3%, in
2000. This decrease resulted primarily from the decrease in aircraft flown.

<PAGE>

Maintenance expenses in the first quarter of 2000 included approximately $1.1
million of costs related to unanticipated corrosion repairs on one aircraft and
expenses related to hail and other accidental damages to another aircraft.
Exclusive of these costs, maintenance expenses would have decreased 12.0%
reflecting the decrease in aircraft operated and resultant 12.2% decrease in
block hours flown year over year.

Aircraft rent and insurance costs decreased $2.8 million, or 13.7%, in 2000.
This decrease resulted from two fewer aircraft and decreases in rent expense for
the Company's MD-11 aircraft negotiated with the aircraft lessors in 1999.

Fuel expenses increased $0.7 million, or 14.0%, in 2000 due to an 11.2% increase
in the average cost of fuel per gallon and a 2.0% increase in the number of
gallons of fuel consumed as a result of more full service flying.

Commissions decreased $0.3 million in 2000, or 16.4%, principally as a result of
a decrease in AMC business.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $0.3 million, or 15.2%, in 2000. This
decrease resulted primarily from a reduction in fixed assets subject to
depreciation.

Sales, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.1 million, or 1.1%, in
2000, primarily as a result of general cost control efforts.

Non-operating income and expense showed a net decrease of $0.4 million in 2000
primarily because of a $1.0 million gain on the sale of a portion of the
Company's interest in an industry-owned organization that was recorded in 1999
and a reduction in debt year over year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company is highly leveraged. At March 31, 2000 the Company's cash and
short-term and long-term marketable investments totaled $8.3 million and the
ratio of the Company's current assets to its current liabilities ("current
ratio") was 0.4:1. Also, as of March 31, 2000, the Company had outstanding
long-term debt and capital leases of $51.2 million and notes payable and current
maturities of long term obligations of $9.1 million. In addition, the Company
has significant long-term obligations relating to operating leases for aircraft
and spare engines.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Operating activities used $7.7 million of cash in the three months ended March
31, 2000 compared to generating $1.9 million in the comparable period in 1999.
The decrease in 2000 is principally due to the $4.8 million loss incurred for
the quarter and a net decrease of $4.8 million in operating assets and
liabilities. The increase in 1999 is mainly due to increases of $5.0 million in
accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $1.4
million in unearned revenue that more than offset an increase of $3.6 million in
accounts receivable.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Investing activities used $1.1 million of cash in the three months ended March
31, 2000, compared to using $0.2 million in the comparable period in 1999. In
both periods cash was used primarily for the purchase of aircraft rotable spare
parts.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Financing activities generated $3.1 million of cash in the three months ended
March 31, 2000 compared to using $3.5 million in the comparable period in 1999.
In 2000, the principal transactions were $6.1 million of cash generated by a
sale/leaseback transaction and $3.0 million used to repay debt. In 1999, cash
was used primarily to repay approximately $4.4 million of debt.

OTHER MATTERS

Year 2000

The Company has not incurred any operational problems in 2000 related to
computer programs.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Part I, Item 3 of this report should be read in conjunction with Part II, Item
7a of World Airways, Inc. ("World Airways" or "the Company") Annual Report on
Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 1999. The information contained
herein is not a quantitative and qualitative discussion about market risk the
Company faces, but rather updates disclosures made in the aforementioned filing.

World Airways continues not to have any material exposure to market risks.
