AVIALL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION



The
accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.



NOTE 2 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION



We account for our stock-based compensation plans in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25, or APB 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. All options granted under our plans have an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Therefore, no
compensation cost related to these plans is included in net earnings. We also make the appropriate disclosures as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, or SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, or SFAS 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure - an Amendment of FAS 123. Awards of restricted stock are valued at the market price of our common
stock on the date of grant and recorded as unearned compensation within shareholders equity. The unearned compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period of the restricted stock.



The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings and earnings per
share, or EPS, if we had applied the fair-value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation (in thousands, except share data):

NOTE 3 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS



In May 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 106-2, or FSP 106-2,
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003. Beginning in 2006, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, or Medicare Act,
introduces a federal subsidy to sponsors of healthcare benefit plans in certain circumstances and a prescription drug benefit to eligible participants under Medicare. FSP 106-2 provides guidance on the accounting for the effects of the Medicare Act.
We are currently evaluating the effects of the Medicare Act. The accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and net postretirement benefit cost for 2004 do not reflect the effects of the Medicare Act. We do not believe the adoption of this
statement will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.



In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised Interpretation No. 46, or FIN 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB
No. 51, replacing the original interpretation issued in January 2003. FIN 46R requires certain entities to be consolidated by enterprises that lack majority voting interest when equity investors of those entities have insignificant capital at
risk or they lack voting rights, the obligation to absorb expected losses, or the right to receive expected returns. Entities identified with these characteristics are called variable interest entities and the interests that enterprises have in
these entities are called variable interests. These interests can derive from certain guarantees, leases, loans or other arrangements that result in risks and rewards that are disproportionate to the voting interests in the entities. We adopted FIN
46R as of March 31, 2004. Because we have no variable interest entities, the adoption of this statement did not have an effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.



In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 132, or SFAS 132R, Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, and 106, and a Revision of FASB Statement No. 132. This statement revises
employers disclosures about pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans. It does not change the measurement or recognition of those plans required by FASB Statements No. 87, Employers Accounting for Pensions, No. 88,
Employers Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits and No. 106, Employers Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions. The new fiscal
disclosure requirements have been included in Note 13 - Pension Plans and Postretirement Benefits to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. The new interim disclosure
requirements have been included in Note 6 - Pension Plans and Postretirement Benefits.

For the three- and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2004, basic EPS is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and diluted EPS is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number
of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.



For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003, basic EPS is computed by allocating net earnings available for distribution to the common and participating preferred shareholders using the
two-class method prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, or SFAS 128, Earnings per Share. Net earnings are reduced by dividends to preferred stockholders to arrive at net earnings available for
distribution. Net earnings available for distribution are then allocated between the common and participating preferred stockholders based on the weighted average common and preferred shares outstanding, on an as-converted basis. For the three- and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2003, diluted EPS is computed using the if-converted method by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.



Diluted EPS was not dilutive, or lower than basic, for the three- and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and is therefore presented equal to basic EPS.

NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES



Our income tax expense for the second quarter of 2004 was $2.8 million, and our effective tax rate was 17.3%. The provision for income taxes for the three
month period ended June 30, 2004 includes a $2.8 million benefit from the release of a valuation allowance for certain state tax net operating loss, or NOL, carryforwards. Based on our recent earnings history, it appears more likely than not that a
majority of the NOL carryforwards in certain states will be utilized prior to expiration. Without the release of these state tax NOL carryforwards, our provision for taxes would have been $5.6 million, and our effective rate would have been 34.7%.

NOTE 8 - GUARANTOR AND NONGUARANTOR
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Our senior unsecured notes, or the
Senior Notes, are fully and unconditionally and jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each direct and indirect domestic subsidiary of Aviall, Inc., or Aviall, each a guarantor subsidiary. Each guarantor subsidiary is
directly or indirectly 100% owned by Aviall. The Senior Notes are not guaranteed by any direct or indirect foreign subsidiary of Aviall, each a nonguarantor subsidiary.



The consolidating financial information presents the consolidating balance sheets as of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003,
the related statements of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and the statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 with separate columns for:



| | a) | Aviall, the parent;
| | -- | -------------------



| | b) | the guarantor subsidiaries on a combined basis;
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------



| | c) | the nonguarantor subsidiaries on a combined basis; and
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------



| | d) | total consolidated amounts.
| | -- | ---------------------------

The information includes elimination entries necessary to consolidate Aviall, the parent, with the
guarantor and nonguarantor subsidiaries.



Investments in
subsidiaries are accounted for by the parent using the equity method of accounting. The guarantor and nonguarantor subsidiaries are presented on a combined basis. The principal elimination entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries and
intercompany balances and transactions. Separate financial statements for the guarantor and nonguarantor subsidiaries are not presented because management believes such financial statements would not be meaningful to investors.



Pursuant to the terms of our senior secured credit facility, or the Credit
Facility, no subsidiary of Aviall other than Aviall Services may pay cash dividends to Aviall, other than to fund limited repurchases or redemptions of outstanding securities. In addition, Aviall Services may pay cash dividends to Aviall for the
purpose of funding (i) ordinary operating expenses and scheduled debt service and (ii) payments by Aviall of taxes in respect of Aviall and its subsidiaries, up to the amount that would be payable by Aviall Services, on a consolidated basis, if it
were the taxpayer. Additionally, the Credit Facility restricts intercompany loans made to Aviall from its direct and indirect subsidiaries, with the exception of intercompany loans made to fund limited repurchases or redemptions of outstanding
securities and loans made by Aviall Services to fund required payments under the Senior Notes. The net assets of consolidating subsidiaries subject to these restrictions were $718.1 million and $707.4 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003,
respectively.

Item 2: Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



Executive Overview



We are the largest independent global provider of new parts, supply-chain
management and other related value-added services to the aerospace aftermarket. The aerospace aftermarket consists of parts needed for the scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, repair and modification of aircraft already in use but does not include
parts used in the construction of new aircraft or engines. We serve this market through our two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Aviall Services, Inc., or Aviall Services, and Inventory Locator Service, LLC, or ILS. Aviall Services provides new parts and
related supply-chain management services to the aerospace industry, and ILS operates electronic marketplaces for buying and selling parts, equipment and services for the aerospace, defense and marine industries.



Aviall Services purchases a broad range of new parts, components and supplies
from over 200 original equipment manufacturers, including in some cases several business units within such manufacturers, or OEMs, and resells them to over 17,500 government/military, general aviation/corporate and commercial airline customers,
including over 290 airlines. Aviall Services also provides value-added services to our customers and suppliers, such as repair and assembly services, supply-chain management services and information-gathering and delivery services.



ILS operates electronic marketplaces for buying and selling parts, equipment
and services for the global aerospace, defense and marine industries. With more than 13,000 users in more than 82 countries, ILSs electronic marketplaces contain more than 53 million line items representing over five billion parts for sale.
ILS also maintains databases of over 112 million cross-referenced United States, or U.S., government records, allowing users to research manufacturers and prices for specific parts, locate alternate parts, find additional uses and markets for parts
and review U.S. government procurement histories.



Our second
quarter 2004 net earnings of $13.5 million or $0.40 diluted earnings per share included the impact of a $0.08 per diluted share release of a state tax net operating loss, or NOL, valuation allowance which was no longer necessary. Our second quarter
2003 net loss of $4.0 million or $1.35 diluted loss per share included a $17.3 million pretax noncash charge for the extinguishment of debt following our June 2003 debt refinancing. Our operating income in the second quarter of 2004 was $20.5
million, an increase of $3.9 million or 24% from the same quarter in 2003. These positive results were driven by Aviall Services strong sales across all geographic regions and market sectors, the incremental impact of new Honeywell products
added in 2003 and the ongoing growth of military-related parts sales. Sales of products under the Rolls-Royce T56 distribution agreement were $139.1 million and $119.4 million in the second quarter of 2004 and 2003, respectively. Aggregate sales of
products supplied by Rolls-Royce and Honeywell were $206.8 million and $162.8 million in the second quarter of 2004 and 2003, respectively. In addition, while our selling and administrative expense increased $5.5 million in the second quarter of
2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003, we continue to benefit from leveraging selling and administrative expense as a percentage of sales. Our second quarter 2004 selling and administrative expense as a percentage of sales was 9.4% compared to
9.6% in the second quarter of 2003.



Our future strategy will
continue to focus on the acquisition of new long-term supplier contracts as well as adding other traditional supplier relationships, delivering superior customer service, expanding the supplier base and product offerings and investing in technology
and infrastructure to increase supplier and customer efficiencies. We will also continue to evaluate potential strategic acquisitions and changes to our capital structure. We believe our ability to grow at a pace similar to that which we have
experienced since 2000 will depend on the award of one or a series of new long-term contracts, the expansion of our traditional supplier base and product offerings and/or completion of a strategic acquisition. The timing and length of the process to
procure new long-term agreements or relationships or a strategic acquisition is unpredictable. We are pursuing a number of opportunities for additional growth. In addition, the economies of scale derived from recent contracts may not be indicative
of our future results.



In July 2004, we raised our guidance
for net earnings from continuing operations in 2004 to be in the range of approximately $41.5 million to $43.0 million, or equivalent to approximately $1.24 to $1.28 per diluted share based upon the current number of diluted shares. This estimate
includes the $2.8 million or $0.08 per diluted share reversal of a valuation allowance for the state tax NOL carryforwards.

Results of Operations-Three Months Ended June 30, 2004 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2003



Net Sales. Net sales for Aviall Services were
$306.9 million, an increase of $63.1 million or 25.9% from the $243.8 million recorded in the second quarter of 2003.



Sales for Aviall Services improved in each of our geographic regions and in all markets with a general strengthening seen across all sectors as follows
(amounts in millions):



|                           |  |                    |      |                     |      |  
|-------------------------- |  | ------------------ | ---- | ------------------- | ---- | -
|                           |  | Amount of Increase |      | Percentage Increase |     
|Geographic region:         |  |                    |      |                     |      |  
|Americas                   |  | $                  | 46.9 |                     | 22.9 | %
|Asia-Pacific               |  | $                  | 10.4 |                     | 41.4 | %
|Europe                     |  | $                  | 5.8  |                     | 42.1 | %
|                           |  |                   
|Market sector:             |  |                    |      |                     |      |  
|Government/Military        |  | $                  | 31.4 |                     | 24.1 | %
|Commercial Airline         |  | $                  | 22.5 |                     | 44.1 | %
|General Aviation/Corporate |  | $                  | 9.2  |                     | 14.6 | %



Sales in the general
aviation/corporate sector increased primarily as the overall market strengthened. Sales in the commercial airline sector increased due primarily to stronger sales volumes in the sector as well as the addition of a new Honeywell lighting product
line. Sales in the government/military sector increased primarily due to the ongoing growth of military-related parts under the Rolls-Royce T-56, or RR T56, distribution agreement. Sales of RR T56 products were $139.1 million in the second quarter
of 2004 and $119.4 million in the second quarter of 2003. Aggregate sales of products supplied by Rolls-Royce and Honeywell were $206.8 million and $162.8 million in the second quarter of 2004 and 2003, respectively.



Net sales for ILS were $7.2 million, an increase of $0.2 million or 2.9% from
the $7.0 million recorded in the second quarter of 2003.



Gross Profit. Gross profit of $50.1 million increased $7.7 million or 18.2% in the second quarter of 2004 compared to $42.4 million in the second quarter of 2003. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 16.0% in the second
quarter of 2004 as compared to 16.9% in the second quarter of 2003. The decreased gross profit percentage was due to a higher proportion of lower margin sales in Aviall Services as price levels were substantially similar year-over-year.



Selling and Administrative Expense. Selling and administrative
expense increased $5.5 million to $29.7 million in the second quarter of 2004 but decreased as a percentage of net sales to 9.4% from 9.6% in the second quarter of 2003. Selling and administrative expense increased primarily due to higher salary and
benefit costs, higher commission expenses, Sarbanes-Oxley implementation costs, increased allowance for doubtful accounts and costs associated with the underwritten resale of common stock by affiliates of The Carlyle Group in April 2004.



Impairment Loss. The $1.7 million impairment loss resulted from the
write-off in June 2003 of a vendor software license purchased in 2001. Beginning in the second quarter of 2003, we began to pursue other cost-effective alternatives resulting from the vendors change in strategic focus. These alternatives will
allow ILS to proceed in a less expensive and more timely manner with a strategy of offering electronic marketplace capabilities from the initial contact between buyer and seller through the conclusion of a transaction.



Loss on Extinguishment of Debt.On June 30, 2003, Aviall issued $200
million of our senior unsecured notes, or Senior Notes. A portion of the net proceeds was used to redeem the entire principal amount of Aviall Services 14% senior notes due 2007, or the 14% Notes. The remaining proceeds were used to repay
approximately $106.3 million of outstanding indebtedness under our revolving credit facility. This refinancing resulted in a $17.3 million noncash charge in June 2003 arising from the extinguishment of debt.

---

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $1.4 million to $4.2 million in the second quarter of
2004 from $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2003. Noncash interest expense amounted to $0.4 million and $1.3 million in 2004 and 2003, respectively. Our interest expense declined due to the combination of the refinancing completed in June 2003
and the $50.0 million fixed to floating interest rate swap put in place in the fourth quarter of 2003.



Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. Our income tax expense for the second quarter of 2004 was $2.8 million, and our effective tax rate was 17.3%.
Our income tax benefit for the second quarter of 2003 was $2.4 million, and our effective tax rate was 37.7%. Tax expense for the second quarter of 2004 includes a $2.8 million benefit from the release of a valuation allowance for certain state tax
NOL carryforwards, which have become useable because of our profitability in these states. Without the release of the state tax NOL valuation allowance, our tax expense would have been $5.6 million, and our effective tax rate would have been 34.7%.
Excluding the state tax NOL benefit, the reduction in our effective tax rate from 37.7% in 2003 to 34.7% in 2004 resulted primarily from higher earnings in 2004 and an increase in the benefit for 2004 from the Extraterritorial Income, or ETI,
exclusion.



Cash payments made for federal, state and foreign
income taxes were $0.9 million and $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2004 and 2003, respectively. Our cash income tax expense is primarily comprised of Alternative Minimum Tax, or AMT, and foreign taxes on our foreign operations. Our cash income
tax expense continues to be substantially lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate through the use of our U.S. federal NOL carryforward.



Preferred Stock Dividend in 2003. The noncash preferred stock dividend of $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2003 represents accrued and unpaid
payable-in-kind dividends on the Series D Senior Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, or Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock, prior to being converted into shares of common stock on June 12, 2003.



Noncash Reduction for Conversion of Preferred Stock in 2003. The $24.3
million noncash reduction for conversion of preferred stock in the second quarter of 2003 resulted from the conversion of all of our outstanding shares of Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock into 11,100,878 shares of our common stock on June 12,
2003 following a reduction by our board of directors of the conversion price of the shares of Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock from $5.80 per share to approximately $4.62 per share.



Results of Operations-Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2003



Net Sales. Net sales for Aviall Services were $583.3 million, an
increase of $95.0 million or 19.5% from the $488.3 million recorded in the first six months of 2003.



Sales for Aviall Services improved in each geographic region and in all markets with a general strengthening seen across all sectors as follows (amounts

|Market sector:             |  |                    |      |                     |      |  
|Government/Military        |  | $                  | 43.4 |                     | 16.6 | %
|Commercial Airline         |  | $                  | 36.3 |                     | 35.4 | %
|General Aviation/Corporate |  | $                  | 15.3 |                     | 12.4 | %



Sales in the general
aviation/corporate sector increased primarily as the overall market strengthened. Sales in the commercial airline sector increased due primarily to stronger sales volumes in the sector as well as the addition of a new Honeywell product line. Sales
in the government/military sector increased primarily due to the ongoing growth of military-related parts sales under the RR T56 distribution agreement. Sales of RR T56 products were $265.1 million in the first six months of 2004 and $241.9 million
in the first six months of 2003. Aggregate sales of products supplied by Rolls-Royce and Honeywell were $392.7 million and $327.8 million in the first six months of 2004 and 2003, respectively.



Net sales for ILS were $14.3 million, an increase of $0.3 million or 2.1%
from the $14.0 million recorded in the first six months of 2003.

months of 2004 compared to $84.7 million in the first six months of 2003. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 16.3% in the first six months of 2004 as compared to 16.9% in the first six months of 2003. The decreased gross profit percentage
was due to a higher proportion of lower margin sales in Aviall Services as price levels were substantially similar year-over-year.



Selling and Administrative Expense. Selling and administrative expense increased $7.9 million to $57.3 million in the first six months of 2004 but
decreased as a percentage of net sales to 9.6% from 9.8% in the first six months of 2003. Selling and administrative expense increased primarily due to higher salary and benefit costs, higher commission expenses, Sarbanes-Oxley implementation costs,
increased allowance for doubtful accounts, and costs associated with the registration of securities in the first quarter of 2004 and the subsequent underwritten resale of common stock by affiliates of The Carlyle Group in April 2004.



Impairment Loss. The $1.7 million impairment loss resulted from the
write-off in June 2003 of a vendor software license purchased in 2001. Beginning in the second quarter of 2003, we decided to pursue other cost-effective alternatives resulting from the vendors change in strategic focus.



Loss on Extinguishment of Debt.On June 30, 2003, Aviall issued $200
million of Senior Notes. A portion of the net proceeds was used to redeem the entire principal amount of 14% Notes. The remaining proceeds were used to repay approximately $106.3 million of outstanding indebtedness under our revolving credit
facility. All costs associated with this transaction were reflected in the second quarter of 2003.



Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $2.9 million to $8.6 million in the first six months of 2004 from $11.5 million in the first six
months of 2003. Noncash interest expense amounted to $0.8 million and $2.7 million in 2004 and 2003, respectively. Our interest expense declined due to the combination of the refinancing completed in June 2003 and the $50.0 million fixed to floating
interest rate swap put in place in the fourth quarter of 2003.



Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. Our income tax expense for the first six months of 2004 was $8.0 million, and our effective tax rate was 25.4%. Our income tax expense for the first six months of 2003 was $1.7 million, and our
effective tax rate was 34.2%. Tax expense for the first six months of 2004 includes a $2.8 million benefit from the release of a valuation allowance for certain state tax NOL carryforwards, which have become useable because of our profitability in
these states. Without the release of the state tax NOL valuation allowance, our tax expense would have been $10.8 million, and our effective tax rate would have been 34.4%.



Cash payments made for federal, state and foreign income taxes were $0.7 million and $0.6 million in the first six months of
2004 and 2003, respectively. Our cash income tax expense is primarily comprised of AMT and foreign taxes on our foreign operations. Our cash income tax expense continues to be substantially lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate through the use
of our U.S. federal NOL carryforward.



Preferred Stock
Dividend in 2003. The noncash preferred stock dividend of $0.9 million in the first six months of 2003 represents accrued and unpaid payable-in-kind dividends on the Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock prior to their conversion into shares of
common stock on June 12, 2003.



Noncash Reduction for
Conversion of Preferred Stock in 2003. The $24.3 million noncash reduction for conversion of preferred stock in the first six months of 2003 resulted from the conversion of all of our outstanding shares of Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock
into 11,100,878 shares of our common stock on June 12, 2003 following a reduction by our board of directors of the conversion price of the shares of Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock from $5.80 per share to approximately $4.62 per share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources



Cash Flow. Net cash flow provided by operations was $60.1 million in the first six months of 2004 compared to $42.6
million in the first six months of 2003. The $17.5 million increase in cash provided by operating activities in 2004 compared to the same period in 2003 resulted primarily from increased cash earnings in 2004 and the increase in accrued expenses
related to payment timing on the Senior Notes. Aviall Services inventory turns improved from 3.1 turns in December 2003 to 3.4 turns in June 2004 due to higher sales volumes and lower inventory levels, which declined by $11.2 million. The
days sales outstanding for Avialls receivables increased from 43 days at December 31, 2003 to 46 days at June 30, 2004 associated with longer terms granted to selected customers.



Capital expenditures were $4.4 million and $3.6 million in the first six
months of 2004 and 2003, respectively. Capital spending in both 2004 and 2003 was primarily for upgrades to Aviall Services enterprise resource planning software, computer hardware and operations infrastructure. Based on capital projects
currently approved by our board of directors, we expect to make capital expenditures, including noncash capital amounts, totaling approximately $12.9 million in 2004. This assumes that no major distribution agreements with suppliers are entered into
in 2004. We review our capital expenditure program periodically and modify it as required to meet current business needs. Under our senior secured credit facility, or the Credit Facility, our capital expenditure limit is approximately $15.6 million,
comprised of a $11.0 million limit for 2004 plus $4.6 million of carryover amounts from prior years.



In summary, our cash provided by operating activities increased by $17.5 million to $60.1 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2004 compared
to the same period in 2003. This includes a reduction of $11.2 million in Variable Working Capital (see definition below), in the aggregate, in 2004 as compared to a reduction of $14.8 million, in the aggregate, in 2003. In 2004, we invested $5.2
million in net capital expenditures and distribution rights as compared to $3.6 million in 2003. The combined cash provided in the first six months of 2004 of $54.9 million for both operating and investing activities together with the $2.6 million
of common stock issued was primarily used to fund the $36.6 million decrease in our cash overdraft position. This resulted in an $18.0 million increase in our cash balance.



In the first six months of 2003, the combined cash of $39.0 million from operating and investing activities was primarily
used to repay our outstanding indebtedness and fund the decrease in our cash overdraft position, with a negligible change in our cash balance. Overdraft positions arise when we settle our accounts payable by issuing checks at month end and the
recipients of these checks have not presented them to our banks for payment before our cut-off for accounting purposes. Generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, treats these amounts similar to debt in the statement of cash flows by
presenting cash overdrafts as a financing activity; however, the balance sheet reflects these amounts as accounts payable. We expect to continue large month end settlements with our major suppliers but the overdrafts will change in accordance with
the variable amounts of product shipped to us from time to time.



Assuming our current level of internal growth, profitability, and the present relationship between increased revenues, Variable Working Capital requirements and our annual capital expenditures, we expect to generate strong positive cash
flows from operations although these may be offset by overdraft obligations and increases in Variable Working Capital when our business is growing. Assuming the foregoing, we project cash flow in 2004 for operating activities will exceed $40.0
million. Our cash flow from operating activities also depends on the timing of the delivery and payment for inventory as discussed in connection with the cash flow summary analysis. In some months, we receive much larger deliveries than the average
of the preceding several months. These larger deliveries can significantly alter our cash flow for that month and on a cumulative basis for both the quarter and the fiscal year to date. In 2003 and 2002, we received large deliveries in November,
which when paid for in December reduced our cash flow from operations for that quarter and twelve month period.



In 2004, we expect to fund internal growth, working capital and capital expenditures from cash flow from operations. In 2004, we do not expect to borrow
any material amounts under our Credit Facility nor to sell debt, equity or other securities on our behalf under our shelf registration statement to fund expected internal growth, working capital and capital expenditures. However, if we are awarded
one or more long-term supplier agreements in 2004 that require significant investments in distribution rights and inventory, if we enter into a strategic acquisition or if our current projections prove to be inaccurate, we may be required to borrow
significant amounts under our Credit Facility or to sell debt, equity or other securities under our shelf registration statement.

We define Variable
Working Capital as receivables plus inventories less accounts payable (excluding cash overdrafts). In no event should Variable Working Capital be considered as an alternative to working capital or any other GAAP measure as an indicator of our
performance, nor should Variable Working Capital be considered as an alternative to working capital as an indicator of our relative liquidity to meet our obligations within an ordinary business cycle. We believe that Variable Working Capital is a
useful measure, along with measurements under GAAP, in evaluating our financial performance and our ability to leverage sales and earnings. In addition, we use Variable Working Capital as a financial measure to evaluate our management of working
capital and as a metric to measure contract and supplier performance.



Senior Unsecured Debt. We have $200.0 million of Senior Notes outstanding. The Senior Notes bear interest at 7.625% per annum and mature on July 1, 2011, unless previously redeemed at our option. We may redeem some or all of the
Senior Notes at specified redemption prices at any time after July 1, 2007. In addition, prior to July 1, 2006, we may redeem up to 35% of the Senior Notes from the proceeds of qualifying equity offerings.



The Senior Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and are equal in right
of payment to all of our senior indebtedness. The Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of our domestic subsidiaries.



In November 2003, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to shorten the duration of our interest rate over the average life of the Senior Notes
on $50.0 million of the $200.0 million principal amount of Senior Notes. Under this agreement, we pay floating interest amounts in exchange for giving up the right to pay a fixed amount without an exchange of the underlying principal amount.

Senior Secured Debt. On June 30, 2004, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Facility to
reduce interest payments, change certain financial ratios and covenants and to permit limited repurchases and redemptions of outstanding securities. Our amended Credit Facility consists of a $200.0 million revolving credit and letter of credit
facility due as a balloon payment in 2006, with availability determined by reference to a borrowing base calculated using our eligible accounts receivable and inventory and after deducting reserves required by the lenders. As of June 30, 2004, we
had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility and had issued letters of credit for $1.0 million. We had $191.0 million available for additional borrowings under the Credit Facility and our borrowing base was $192.0 million as of June 30,
2004. Until December 31, 2004, borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at our option, at a Base Rate plus an applicable margin equal to 1.0% per annum; or at a Eurodollar Rate plus an applicable margin equal to 2.0% per annum. After
December 31, 2004, borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest based upon either: a Eurodollar Rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.5% to 2.25% depending upon our financial ratios or a Base Rate plus an applicable margin ranging from
0.5% to 1.25% depending upon the same financial ratios. We expect to utilize both of these interest rate options. As of June 30, 2004, the interest rate on the Credit Facility would have been 5.75%. A commitment fee of 0.5% is payable monthly in
arrears on the daily unused portion of the Credit Facility. Obligations under the Credit Facility are collateralized by substantially all of our domestic assets and 65% of the stock of certain of our foreign subsidiaries. The Credit Facility also
contains default clauses that permit the acceleration of all amounts due following an event of default at the discretion of the lenders, and lock-box provisions that apply our cash collections to outstanding borrowings. Based on the terms of the
Credit Facility and pursuant to EITF Issue No. 95-22, Balance Sheet Classification of Revolving Credit Agreement Obligations Involving Lock-Box Arrangements, we classify amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility, if any, as current.



We also maintain a secured revolving credit facility in Canada
with a total availability of Canadian $6.0 million. At June 30, 2004, we had an outstanding balance under this Canadian facility equivalent to U.S. $0.4 million.



Debt Covenants. The Credit Facility contains various restrictive operating and financial covenants, including several
that are based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, extraordinary gains or losses, and one-time items, or Adjusted EBITDA.



We must comply with a maximum leverage ratio covenant that measures the ratio of our outstanding debt to our Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing four
quarters. This maximum leverage ratio covenant was 3.25 to 1 at June 30, 2004 and will remain at that level for all periods thereafter. We must also comply with a minimum interest coverage ratio covenant that measures the ratio of our Adjusted
EBITDA for the trailing four quarters to our interest expense during the trailing four quarters. The minimum interest coverage ratio covenant was 3.0 to 1 at June 30, 2004 and periodically increases until it reaches 3.50 to 1 for December 31, 2004
and all periods thereafter. Furthermore, we must maintain a tangible net worth of not less than $205.8 million plus 75% of the cumulative consolidated net income for each fiscal quarter ending on or after June 30, 2004. As of June 30, 2004, the
required tangible net worth was $215.9 million. Finally, we must limit our capital expenditures to no more than $15.6 million, which includes $4.6 million of allowed carryover spending from prior years, and $11.0 million for each of 2005 and 2006
plus any unused carryover, up to a maximum amount of $10.0 million in such fiscal year.



The Senior Notes also contain various restrictive covenants. We may not incur additional indebtedness unless we maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 2.0 to 1.0 or unless the debt is otherwise
permitted under the indenture. The consolidated interest coverage ratio measures the ratio of our EBITDA, as defined in the indenture relating to the Senior Notes, for the trailing four quarters to our interest expense for such quarters. Subject to
specified exceptions, we may not make payments on or redeem our capital stock, make certain investments or make other restricted payments unless we maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 2.0 to 1.0 and otherwise have available
50% of cumulative consolidated net income or capital stock sale proceeds from which such payments may be made. We are unable to incur liens unless expressly permitted under the Senior Notes or unless the Senior Notes are equally and ratably secured.
We may not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the capital stock of our subsidiaries unless specifically authorized. We must receive fair market value for any asset sales and the consideration must be paid at least 75% in cash, cash equivalents or
assumed liabilities. To the extent such proceeds are received, we must reinvest any proceeds exceeding $10 million in additional assets within a period of 365 days or thereafter repay senior debt or repurchase Senior Notes. Additionally, we must
repurchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes upon a change of control. The indenture relating to the Senior Notes also contains additional covenants.



We are currently, and expect to remain, in compliance for at least the next
twelve months in all material respects with the covenants in the Credit Facility and the Senior Notes.

The Adjusted EBITDA
calculation above is prepared in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility. The noncash gains, which are included in the Adjusted EBITDA calculation in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility, may occur again in the future.
Depreciation and amortization expense above excludes debt issue cost and debt discount amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is presented solely to provide information on our debt covenants, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an
alternative to operating results or cash flows calculated in accordance with GAAP.



Contractual Obligations. There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations as set forth in Item 7: Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations - Contractual Obligations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.



New Accounting Pronouncements. In May 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 106-2, or FSP
106-2, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003. Beginning in 2006, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, or Medicare
Act, introduces a federal subsidy to sponsors of healthcare benefit plans in certain circumstances and a prescription drug benefit to eligible participants under Medicare. FSP 106-2 provides guidance on the accounting for the effects of the Medicare
Act. We are currently evaluating the effects of the Medicare Act. The accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and net postretirement benefit cost for 2004 does not reflect the effects of the Medicare Act. We do not believe the adoption of this
statement will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.



In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised Interpretation No. 46, or FIN 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB
No. 51, replacing the original interpretation issued in January 2003. FIN 46R requires certain entities to be consolidated by enterprises that lack majority voting interest when equity investors of those entities have insignificant capital at
risk or they lack voting rights, the obligation to absorb expected losses, or the right to receive expected returns. Entities identified with these characteristics are called variable interest entities and the interests that enterprises have in
these entities are called variable interests. These interests can derive from certain guarantees, leases, loans or other arrangements that result in risks and rewards that are disproportionate to the voting interests in the entities. We adopted FIN
46R as of March 31, 2004. Because we have no variable interest entities, the adoption of this statement did not have an effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 132, or SFAS
132R, Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, and 106, and a Revision of FASB Statement No. 132. This statement revises employers disclosures about
pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans. It does not change the measurement or recognition of those plans required by FASB Statements No. 87, Employers Accounting for Pensions, No. 88, Employers Accounting
for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits and No. 106, Employers Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions. The new fiscal disclosure requirements have
been included in Note 13 - Pension Plans and Postretirement Benefits to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. The new interim disclosure requirements have been included
in Note 6 - Pension Plans and Postretirement Benefits.



Forward-Looking
Statements



This report contains certain
forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) that are based on the beliefs of our management, as well as assumptions and estimates made by, and information currently available to, our
management. When used in this report, the words anticipate, believe, estimate, expect, intend and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forward-looking
statements. Such statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations and results of operations as well as those of our customers and suppliers,
including as a result of competitive factors and pricing pressures, shifts in market demand, general economic conditions and other factors including, among others, those that effect flight activity in the commercial, business, government/military,
and general/corporate aviation segments, the business activities of our customers and suppliers and developments in information and communication technology. Additional risks are set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2003. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions or estimates prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.



Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk



We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign
exchange rates. From time to time, we have used financial instruments to offset these risks. These financial instruments are not used for trading or speculative purposes. We did not experience any significant changes in market risk during the first
six months of 2004. Our market risk is described in more detail in Item 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.



Item 4: Controls and Procedures



The term disclosure controls and procedures is defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act. This term refers to the controls and procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that
it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that
our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.



During the second quarter of 2004, our management discovered approximately $0.6 million of misappropriated funds which dated from 1999 to the present
resulting from an internal control failure related to a lack of segregation of duties at our Singapore subsidiary. Due to the method used to effectuate the misappropriation of funds, the losses were in most cases expensed during the periods in which
they actually occurred. These amounts were not material to the financial statements in any of the financial periods affected. During the second quarter of 2004, we terminated the employee and instituted additional internal controls over cash
functions, including transferring responsibility for those functions to the Treasury and Accounting departments at Avialls headquarters. Our investigation is substantially complete. We have instituted criminal proceedings against the former
employee and expect to obtain partial restitution.

With regard to the ILS accounting control issue discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2003, the
accounting functions for ILS were successfully transferred to Avialls headquarters effective April 1, 2004.



Except as noted above, there were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during our second quarter of 2004 that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. At all times and even given the foregoing, we believe our disclosure controls and procedures provided reasonable assurance that information
required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC.
