NOTE 1: CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1999, consolidated
statement of earnings for the six month and three month periods ended March
31, 1999 and 1998, and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for
the six month periods then ended were prepared by the Company, without audit.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position,
results of operations, and cash flows at March 31, 1999 and for all periods
presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's September 30, 1998
annual report on Form 10-KSB. The results of operations for the periods ended
March 31, 1999 and 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for the full year.
NOTE 2: CASH AND SHORT-TERM SECURITIES
The Company considers cash on hand and deposits in banks as cash and cash
equivalents. All items in this category have maturities of less than three
months.
NOTE 3: INVENTORIES
Inventories are classified as follows:
                                                                     MARCH 31
                                                                       1999
Aircraft parts and accessories, oil and
 supplies less provisions for obsolete
 and slow-moving, and excess quantity
 of $20                                                                $12
Fuel                                                                    24
                                                                       $36
NOTE 4: ESCROW FUNDS
On March 11, 1999 the Company sold its FBO at Chicago's Midway Airport for
$17,750. From the proceeds of the sale, $3,511 was held in escrow for the
payment of the industrial revenue bond, including interest. The bond was paid
in full on April 15. Another $3,020 was held in escrow for the payment of
real estate taxes in arrears. These taxes are in dispute.
NOTE 5: NOTES RECEIVABLE - AFFILIATE
The total of $1,479 in this category is the outstanding balance including
interest, against a $1,500 line-of-credit given to Brant Motor Sports, Inc.,
whose principals include R. Ted Brant and Bobby Adkins, both members of the
Company's Board of Directors and Company employees. The interest rate on this
loan is prime less 1%.
NOTE 6: SINKING FUND
The sinking fund was established pursuant to an agreement with PHH Corpora-
tion (PHH), a guarantor of the letter-of-credit supporting the industrial
revenue bond with Cook County, Illinois, whereby the Company would make
certain agreed-to monthly payments into the fund. The purpose of the fund was
to provide for payment of the $3,500 bond due in 2014. However, with the sale
of the Chicago FBO, the $3,500 bond was paid in full on April 15, 1999. Under
the agreement with PHH, however, the Company will continue to make monthly
payments into the fund for three months after the bonds are paid, at which
time the balance will be returned to the Company.
NOTE 7: OTHER ASSETS
Included in this category is $9,875, the Company's investment in a limited
liability company named RTB/AS, L.L.C. The other investor in this company is
R. Ted Brant, Jr., the Company's President and Chairman of the Board of
Directors. The express purpose of RTB/AS, L.L.C. is to invest in the auto
racing industry.
NOTE 8: ACCRUED EXPENSES
The major component of the $1,717 accrued for property, payroll, and other
taxes is an accrual of $1,668 for a New York motor fuels tax assessment which
has been appealed.
Of the $3,156 of accrued expenses - affiliate, $3,153 is interest on the
notes due Transtech Holding Company.
NOTE 9: FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
Notes Payable - Industrial Revenue Bond
This $3,500 bond was due for redemption in 2014, but was paid in full in
April 1999 from the proceeds of the sale of the Company's Chicago FBO. It was
reclassified to short term at September 30, 1998.
Long Term Debt-Affiliate
Included in this category are $7,984 of various demand loans due to Transtech
Holding Company, (Transtech), the Company's principle shareholder. These
notes, classified as current maturities of long term debt, provide for
interest at 2% above the prime rate. Also included is a note due Transtech
in the amount of $6,910, bearing a prime interest rate. The note is
collateralized by a first priority interest on the fixed assets, inventory,
and accounts receivable of the Company. Also, this category includes $774,
the balance due on the purchase of an airplane in July 1996 from R. Ted
Brant, the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
The note is due Cessna Corporation but remains in the name of Mr. Brant. The
Company makes payments directly to Cessna.
Long Term Debt-Other
In October 1998, the Company entered into a fuel supply agreement with Avfuel
Corporation (Avfuel) whereby Avfuel will be the exclusive fuel provider at
the Company's FBOs for a period of seven years. In addition, the Company
borrowed $1,000 from Avfuel. Under the terms of the note, Aero must make
monthly payments equal to $0.045 per gallon for each gallon of jet aviation
fuel delivered by Avfuel to Aero under the fuel supply agreement during the
preceding month. Each of the monthly payments shall be funded by means of a
financing rebate issued by Avfuel at the rate of $0.045 per gallon of jet
aviation fuel delivered to Aero during the previous month. The note carries
an interest rate of prime plus 1.75% and has a maturity date of September 15,
2006. In March 1999, the buyer of the Company's Chicago FBO assumed $750 of
this debt. At March 31, 1999 the outstanding balance of $220, less the
current portion of $45, is included in long term debt.
NOTE 10: INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net income (loss) per share includes no dilution and is calculated by
dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Dilutive net income (loss) per share reflects the
potential dilution of securities that could share in the net income of the
Company through the exercise of stock options and the conversion of preferred
stock.
NOTE 11: RELATED PARTIES TRANSACTIONS
The Company is indebted to its major shareholder Transtech (holder of 50.4%
of common stock and 71.8% of preferred) in the amount of $14,894. Relative
to this debt, the Company had accrued interest of $3,153 at March 31. During
the six months ended March 31, 1999 the Company paid $157 of interest and $6
of principal to Transtech. In December 1998 the Company issued 500,000 shares
of common stock to Transtech in exchange for $315 of debt forgiveness.
The Company periodically uses an aircraft owned by Valley Air Services, Inc.
(Valley Air) for travel by its employees, primarily management. Valley Air
bills the Company an hourly rate based on flight time. The President and
Chief Executive Officer of Valley Air is R. Ted Brant. During the six months
ended March 31, 1999 the Company was billed $59 for use of the aircraft.
During fiscal year 1998, the Company's Board of Directors approved a $500
line-of-credit, later increased to $1,500 in March 1999, for a company called
Brant Motor Sports, Inc. (See Note 5 for details.)
NOTE 12: CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
A. Environmental Matters
The Company's business involves the storage, handling and sale of fuel, and
the provision of mechanical maintenance and refurbishing services which
involve the use of hazardous chemicals. Accordingly, the Company is required
to comply with federal, state and local provisions which have been enacted
to regulate the discharge of material into the environment or otherwise
relate to the protection of the environment.
The Company is presently responsible for ongoing remediation of underground
contamination at one previously owned location in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. At
another previously owned location on the Raleigh-Durham Airport in North
Carolina, the Company is one of several former operators of fuel tanks at the
facility responsible for sharing remediation costs. The Company reached a
settlement agreement with the airport authority there during fiscal year 1996
which limits the Company's liability to $85 with payments to the authority
not to exceed $20 in any calendar year. The Company has been billed and paid
$38 through March 31, 1999.
At March 31, 1999 the Company has included in its financial statements an
accrual for environmental remediation of $344. Based on estimates by the
engineering firms conducting the remediation projects, the Company has
sufficient reserves should any additional problems arise during remediation.
The Company, in addition, is reimbursed by the Wisconsin Petroleum Environ-
mental Cleanup Fund in excess of 95% of remediation expenses. The accrual of
$344 has not been reduced by any expected future reimbursements from
Wisconsin.

Sales for the six month period ended March 31, 1999 decreased $160 (3%) as
compared to the same period in 1998. This decrease resulted from the sale of
the Chicago FBO on March 11. During the three months ended March 31, 1999
sales decreased $421 as compared to the same period in 1998, again resulting
from the sale of the Chicago FBO.
Cost of sales for the six month period in 1999 has been reduced by 5.3% of
sales to 36.3% as compared to 41.6% in 1998.  This decrease is due to a
change in sales mix and an increase in fuel margins.  Cost of sales for the
three month period decreased by 3.4% of sales to 36.5%.  The sale of Chicago
had a greater effect on the quarterly margins than on the year-to-date
margins.
Departmental costs increased by $268 (13%) during the six month period ended
March 31, 1999 as compared to 1998.  Payroll and related costs increased $148
and repairs and maintenance costs increased by $95.  Most of the increases
came in the first quarter of the years, because for the three month period
ended March 31, departmental costs only increased $19 in 1999 as compared to
1998.
Administrative costs increased by $279 (56%) during the six month period in
1999 as compared to 1998.  The causes of this increase were increased legal
fees ($153), advertising expense ($99) and depreciation expense ($23).
During the three month period ended March 31, 1999, administrative costs
increased $171 (72%) with $153 of the increase in legal fees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Working capital deficiency at March 31, 1999 decreased by $2,075 to ($11,021)
from September 30, 1998. Current assets increased by $1,240, with the major
changes being increases in escrow funds of $6,531, notes receivable-affiliate
of $1,381, and cash of $355 being reduced by decreases in deferred taxes of
$5,000, assets held for sale of $1,452 and notes receivable of $500. Current
liabilities decreased by $835 to $20,583 with the majority of the decrease
($745) in accrued expense-other.
Operations during the six months ended March 31, 1999 used $16,710 of cash.
Cash of $19,199 was provided by the sale of the Chicago FBO ($17,750) and the
issuance of notes payable ($1,449). Cash of $518 was used to purchase fixed
assets and $1,616 was used to reduce the principal amount of notes payable.
In January 1999, the Company and R. Ted Brant formed a limited liability
company named RTB/AS, L.L.C. to invest in the auto racing industry. The
Company's total investment in RTB/AS, L.L.C. to date is approximately $10
million and could eventually be approximately $12.5 million. The Company
continues to explore other business opportunities not related to the aviation
industry. One such opportunity under consideration is a joint venture for the
construction and operation of an indoor motor speedway and exhibition center.
Management is continuing to search for business opportunities that could
produce profits whereby the approximately $34 million of net operating loss
carry forward could be utilized to produce cash flow. However, there can be
no assurance that the Company can be returned to profitability or maintained
as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be
necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 1. - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 The Company is subject to several complaints filed over the last several
years in different courts or administrative agencies on a variety of grounds.
These claims are encountered in the ordinary course of business, and in the
opinion of management, the resolution of these matters, either individually
or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position, cash flow, and operations in excess of accruals already
recorded. Management believes that it has established adequate reserves for
all of these claims. Management also believes it has strong defenses and
intends to vigorously defend its position.
The Company is also exposed to a number of asserted and unasserted potential
claims encountered in the normal course of business. In the opinion of
management, the resolution of these matters, as well as those discussed above
or referenced elsewhere in this report, will not have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial position in excess of what has already been
recorded. Management believes that it has established adequate reserves for
all of these claims.
ITEM 5. - OTHER INFORMATION
 The Company has reviewed the potential impact of Year 2000 issues on its
business operations and has determined the following:
 The main computers used by Aero and the software operated on the computer
require only minor corrections to become year 2000 compliant. Aero is
considering changing its computer operations to a PC based system using new
software that is year 2000 compliant. If Aero elects not to pursue the PC
based and year 2000 compliant software, Aero will cause its present system
to be year 2000 compliant by the Fall of 1999.
Aero has contacted its principal insurers and suppliers, especially the
supplier of aviation fuel to ascertain that those suppliers will be able to
deliver product in a timely fashion. The Company has received written
confirmation from the majority of its insurers and fuel suppliers that they
are year 2000 compliant.
Aero has also been in contact with the managers of the airports where it
operates FBOs to determine that they will be able to continue to operate and
will be year 2000 compliant. The Company has not yet received written
confirmation.
The Company's main banks and its utility companies have confirmed in writing
of their compliance and or compliance status. At the time of the filing of
this report, the Company has no contingency plan relating to potential year
2000 issues. Aero does not expect to incur any significant expense in
becoming year 2000 compliant, except the expense of converting its computer
system if in fact it determines that it should convert that system to a PC
based system.
