under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code for sale of the Assets to Buyer

reasonable efforts to obtain an expeditious hearing on the Sale Motion.

                (ii)  The Order is entered on or before March 21, 2002, subject
to extension of this date by written agreement of Buyer and Seller.

                (iii) The Order becomes Final on or before March 31, 2002,
subject to extension of this date by written agreement of Buyer and Seller.

                (iv)  Seller complies with the terms of this Agreement,
including, without limitation, its obligation to deliver the Transaction
Documents at Closing, within ten (10) days' after written notice by Buyer to
Seller of any alleged failure to do so.

                (v)   Seller's representations and warranties made in this
Agreement are true and correct as of the Closing.

            (b) The obligation of Seller to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement is conditioned only on the occurrence of each of
the following events:

                (i)   The Order is entered on or before March 21, 2002, subject
to extension of this date by written agreement of Buyer and Seller.

                (ii)  The Order becomes Final on or before March 31, 2002,
subject to extension of this date by written agreement of Buyer and Seller.

         6.  Bankruptcy Proceedings.

                (a) On February 26, 2002, Seller filed with the Bankruptcy
Court a motion outlining proposed bid procedures with respect to the sale of the
Assets (the "Procedures Motion"). The Procedures Motion provided that an offer
other than the agreement set forth herein will not be favorably considered by
Seller unless the offer: (i) includes a cash component that exceeds the amount
of the Credit Bid provided under this Agreement (or any then effective amendment
hereof) by at least $250,000.00; (ii) includes an amount comparable to the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Asset Purchase Agreement                                                  Page 5

<PAGE>


Unsecured Creditors Payment provided under this Agreement that exceeds the value
of the Unsecured Creditors Payment by at least 2.5%, (iii) provides for the
proposed buyer to make a cash deposit with Seller's Counsel, in trust, of
$1,000,000.00; and (iv) contains terms that are substantially similar to the
terms of the Term Sheet for Acquisition of Assets by AASI, dated February 26,
2002, by and among Seller, Buyer and the Committee (the "Term Sheet"); The
Procedures Motion also provided that if Buyer is not the successful bidder, then
so long as Buyer is then in compliance with this Agreement, Buyer shall receive
an exit fee of $200,000.00 upon termination of this Agreement (the "Exit Fee").

                (b) Buyer understands and agrees that although this Agreement
may be signed by Seller, the process of sale pursuant to the Sale Motion and the
Procedures Motion creates, in essence, an auction environment and that Seller
cannot warrant or represent that, in fact, Buyer will be the successful
purchaser of the Assets, or that Buyer will acquire the Assets for the Purchase
Price, and that Buyer's sole and exclusive remedy therefor will be the Exit Fee,
the payment received on account of its Claim, and any other compensation or
reimbursement specifically authorized by the Bankruptcy Court. Seller may
negotiate with other persons regarding purchase of the Assets as required under
Procedures Order. Seller may accept an alternate bidder, but only on the terms
and conditions set forth in the Procedures Order or as otherwise expressly
required by the Bankruptcy Court, and in no event may Seller solicit or accept
alternate bids after the Final Order is entered.

                (c) Immediately upon receipt of an offer by a third party to
purchase the Assets that offer is in compliance with the Procedures Order (a
"Third Party Offer"), Seller shall deliver a copy of the Third Party Offer to
Buyer, and Buyer shall have the right, prior to the date and time of the hearing
scheduled by the Bankruptcy Court to hear the Sale Motion, to send to Seller
written notice of its intent to increase its Credit Bid under this Agreement,
specifically stating the amended amount of the Credit Bid (the "Purchase Price
Increase Notice"), and upon receipt by Seller of the Purchase Price Increase
Notice, Seller and Buyer shall immediately enter into a formal amendment of this
Agreement amending the Credit Bid amount as provided in the Purchase Price
Notice Increase, but even if Seller and Buyer fail to enter into such an
amendment, this Agreement shall nonetheless be deemed to have been amended by
the Purchase Price Notice Increase, but only to the extent that it increases the
Credit Bid, and not otherwise.

                (d) For purposes of the Bankruptcy Case, Buyer and Seller agree
(and the Committee accepts) that: (i) Buyer shall be deemed to have a deficiency
claim (the "Deficiency Claim") equal to the difference between $13,700,000.00,
which is the amount of Buyer's Claim in the Bankruptcy Case, and the final
Credit Bid; and (ii) Buyer shall be deemed to have an Allowed Unsecured Claim in
the Bankruptcy Case in the amount of the Deficiency Claim and shall be eligible
for voting and treatment in any plan of reorganization of Seller (a
"Reorganization Plan"); provided however, that if, but only if: (A) Closing
occurs and (B) Buyer has a right to recover any amount on the Deficiency Claim,
then upon the "Effective Date" of the Reorganization Plan, if any, Buyer's right
to recover any amount under the Deficiency Claim shall be deemed to be
subordinate to the claims of the other Unsecured Creditors for distribution
purposes. The provisions of this subsection shall survive Closing, but not any
other termination of this Agreement.

         7.  Representations and Warranties of Seller.  Seller represents and
             ----------------------------------------
warrants to Buyer as of the Effective Date, and again as of the Closing Date,
that the following statements are true and correct:

                                                                -------
5(a)(i), 5(a)(ii), 5(a)(iiii) 5(b)(i), or 5(b)(ii) is not satisfied as and when
-------------------------------------     --------
required thereby; or (ii) an order is entered authorizing the sale of the Assets
to an entity other than Buyer, then, on the date on which the first of the
foregoing occurs, this Agreement shall terminate without any liability on the
part of Seller or Buyer to the other, provided, however, that, if applicable
under the Procedures Order, Seller shall pay to Buyer the Exit Fee.

             (b) If any one of the conditions set forth Section 5(a)(iv) or
                                                        ----------------
5(a)(v) is not satisfied on or before the Closing, then Buyer has the right, but
-------
not the obligation, to deliver written notice to Seller that it is terminating
the Agreement, and upon delivery of that notice to Seller, this Agreement shall
immediately terminate; provided, however, that, if applicable under the
Procedures Order, Seller shall pay to Buyer the Exit Fee.

             (c) If any one of the conditions set forth in Section 5(b)(iii) or
                                                           -----------------
5(b)(iv) is not satisfied on or before the Closing, then Seller has the right,
but not the obligation, to deliver written notice to Buyer that it is
terminating the Agreement, an upon deliver of that notice to Buyer, this
Agreement shall immediately terminate; provided, however, that Seller shall
retain all rights and remedies available to Seller against the Buyer at law or
in equity, including those for breach of contract.

             (d) If Seller fails to perform its obligations under this
Agreement, then Buyer shall be entitled to enforce specific performance within
the Bankruptcy Court by an appropriate adversary action.

             (e) Any claim by Buyer for damages under this Agreement in
connection with a breach by Seller of the representations and warranties
contained in this Agreement shall be considered to be a claim for an
administrative expense pursuant to ss.503 of the Bankruptcy Code under the
Bankruptcy Case and, therefore, Buyer shall be barred from asserting any such
claim from and after the "Bar Date" set for asserting such claims provided by
the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Bankruptcy Case.

         13. Committee Approval. An authorized representative or agent of the
             ------------------
Committee has executed this Agreement as "approved" to evidence its support of
this Agreement, including the Bankruptcy Court procedures, and by its execution
here the authorized representative hereby waives any and all rights of the
Committee (but not its individual members as creditors of the bankruptcy estate)
to challenge the provisions and/or enforceability of this Agreement as between
Buyer and Seller for all purposes, including, but not limited to the proceedings
in the Bankruptcy Case.

         14.      Restriction on Shares.
                  ---------------------

                  (a) The Shares to be delivered by Seller at Closing shall be
restricted until the earlier of: (i) the date on which the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission approves a "no action" letter submitted to it
to the effect that the Shares may be resold pursuant to Section 1145 of the
Bankruptcy Code (the "No Action Letter"); or (ii) the date on which the resale
of the Shares has been registered with the Securities Exchange Commission or an
exemption from registration of such resale pursuant to SEC Rule 144(k) is
available. The certificates evidencing the Shares shall bear an appropriate
legend reflecting the applicable restriction, and if the No Action Letter is
issued permitting resale under Section 1145, then the Buyer shall promptly, upon
request, remove this restrictive legend from the Shares (this provisions shall
not be deemed to require removal of the restrictive legend described in
subsection 9c) below).

                  (b) Buyer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to
obtain the No Action Letter prior to the Closing Date, and in any event within
sixty (60) days following the Closing Date. If Buyer is unable to obtain the No
Action Letter on or before the Closing Date, then, in addition to the Shares to
be delivered by Seller at Closing, Buyer agrees to deliver the Security Shares
to Seller's Counsel to be held in trust for the benefit of Seller.

                      (i) If Buyer is unable to obtain the No Action Letter
prior to the sixty-first (61st) day after the Closing Date, then on that date,
Buyer's Counsel shall deliver the Security Shares to Seller, as its sole and
exclusive remedy for Buyer's failure to deliver the No

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<PAGE>


Action Letter, and Buyer shall have no further obligations to obtain a No Action
Letter, nor to register the shares, nor comply with the requirements that would
permit resale of the Shares under "Rule 144" or other exemptions from
registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if the No Action Letter is
not issued, and Buyer files a registration statement (other than a registration
statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8) within two (2) years of the Closing Date,
then to the extent not in violation of agreements of Buyer existing at the
Closing concerning registration of Buyer's stock, and to the extent not
precluded by the registration obligations under such other agreements, Buyer
shall grant the Shares "piggyback" registration rights with respect to such
registration statement. If any such registration statement has been filed in
connection with an underwritten offering, the "piggyback" registration rights
will be subject to customary underwriter cutback requirements and a requirement
that the selling shareholder become a party to the underwriting agreement. The
Security Shares, to the extent actually delivered to Seller in accordance
herewith, shall bear the same restrictions on transfer as those contained in the
Shares (including, without limitation, the restrictions set forth in subsection
(a) above, and subsection 9c) below.

                  (ii) If Buyer delivers the No Action Letter to Seller
prior to the sixty-first (61st) day after the Closing, then immediately upon the
delivery, Buyer's Counsel shall return the Security Shares and possession of the
certificates evidencing the Security Shares to Buyer, and Buyer shall have no
further obligations to deliver the Security Shares to Seller hereunder.

              (c) In addition to the foregoing restrictions on transfer
(specifically including the prohibition on transfer of any of the Shares before
the No Action Letter is obtained), and in addition to any other legal
restrictions on the transfer of the Shares, the Shares shall also be restricted
as a matter of agreement between Buyer and Seller (and the certificates
evidencing the Shares shall bear an appropriate legend) as follows: (i) not more
than one tenth (1/10th) of the total Shares (the "Monthly Allowed Amount')
issued at Closing may be transferred during the calendar month in which the
Closing occurs and each successive calendar month that follows (each, a
"Month"); provided, however, that to the extent that less than the Monthly
Allowed Amount is transferred in any one Month, then any unsold portion of the
Monthly Allowed Amount may be transferred in any subsequent Month, such that,
after the end of the tenth (10th) Month after the Closing Date, none of the
Shares shall be subject any longer to the restrictions set forth in this
subsection. After the Shares are distributed to each of the Creditors, the
Monthly Allowed Amount shall be determined as to each Creditor on an individual
basis, and not on an aggregate basis. That is, no single Creditor may sell in
any month more than 1/10th of such Creditor's Shares plus any of such Creditor's
Shares previously released for sale hereunder that remain unsold. The provisions
of this Section 14 shall survive Closing, but not any termination of this
        ----------
Agreement prior to Closing. Buyer may place a legend on the Shares indicating
this restriction, but if so, shall immediately remove such legend upon request
of any party after the tenth (10th) month following the Closing Date.

         15. Limited Indemnity; Release.
             --------------------------

             a. At Closing, Seller will provide Buyer with a limited
indemnity as to claims covered by products liability insurance (if any) carried
by Seller (the "Insurance Policies") to the extent (only) that the claims are
actually covered by that insurance and the indemnity is payable only out of
proceeds (if any) of that insurance, so that in no event would the indemnity be
paid out of retained assets of Seller; further, nothing in the indemnity will
require Seller to continue or renew its coverage beyond the current policy
expiration. Furthermore, at (or prior

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Asset Purchase Agreement                                                 Page 10

<PAGE>


to) the Closing Seller shall cause the Insurance Policies to be amended to
include Buyer as an additional insured, and shall, at Closing deliver to Buyer
certificates of insurance reflecting that fact.

             b. At Closing, Seller will and, by accepting Buyer's payment of the
Purchase Price hereunder does, release any and all claims and causes of action
that it (and/or its bankruptcy estate) may hold, if any (and specifically
including all avoidance actions and other choses in action under Chapter 5 of
the Bankruptcy Code owned by Seller and/or its bankruptcy estate), against
Buyer, Congress Financial Corporation, and/or any of their respective officers,
directors, agents, employees, attorneys, or affiliates acting in those
capacities, save and except those arising directly from a breach of this
Agreement by Buyer. Seller shall confirm this release in writing as of Closing.

             c. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, including the provisions of the indemnity set forth in Section 15(a)
                                                                  -------------
above, except for the Assumed Liabilities and as otherwise expressly provided in
Section 11 above, Buyer does not, and shall not as a result of the consummation
----------
of the transactions contemplated hereunder, or otherwise, assume any liability,
duty, or obligation, including, without limitation, "Claims" (as that term is
defined under ss. 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code), claims for legal costs and
attorneys' fees, liability for bodily injury, personal injury and or property
damage (or the loss of use of property, whether or not that property has been
physically damaged or destroyed), which arises from or otherwise relates to: (i)
the Seller's operations; or (ii) any other act or omission relating to the
conduct of the Seller, including, without limitation, those that arise from or
relate to: (A) anything designed, manufactured, altered, modified, supplied
and/or sold by Seller; (B) any advisory services provided by Seller; and (C) any
obligation or duty owed by Seller. In particular, and without limitation, Buyer
does not, and shall not assume or be deemed responsible for any liability, duty,
or obligation of Seller in connection with any aircraft designed, manufactured,
modified, supplied and/or sold by Seller, including, without limitation, those
aircraft (or any part thereof) bearing any serial number through: (1) with
respect to Model J, 24-3431; (2) with respect to Model K, 25-2032, (3) with
respect to Model L, 26-0041, with respect to Model M, 27-0316, (4) with respect
to Model R, 29-0279, (5) with respect to Model S, 30-0062, and (6) with respect
to Model T, 28-0001, each of which are believed to be the highest serial number
issued to any aircraft for the relevant model produced by Seller prior to the
date of Closing, specifically including without limitation, in connection with
any Claims pursued against Seller under the litigation referred to in the
Petitioner's Motion for Relief From Automatic Stay Pursuant to 11 U.S.C.
ss.362(d), filed on March 13, 2002 with the Bankruptcy Court by the Estate of
Frank H. Johnson and FHJ Aviation Inc. as petitioners.

             d. The provisions of this Section 15 shall survive the Closing, but
                                       ----------
not any termination of this Agreement prior to Closing.

         16. Subject to Bankruptcy Court Approval.  Notwithstanding anything to
             ------------------------------------
contrary provided herein, this Agreement is, in all things, subject to approval
of the Bankruptcy Court and the entry of an Order, and the Order becoming a
Final Order.

         17. Notices. Notices required or provided hereunder shall be in
             -------
writing, shall be addressed to the recipient at the address set forth below,
including all copy addresses, shall be copied to each party (other than the
giver of the notice), including copy of recipients, and shall be set by hand

2.1  Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc. on Exercise. The Company agrees that
     ------------------------------------------------
the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
deemed to be issued to the holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as
of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been
surrendered and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any
event within seven (7) days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including
the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the
name of and delivered to the holder hereof, or as such holder (upon payment by
such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with
applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly
and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or
Other Securities) to which such holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus,

upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Asset Purchase Agreement

<PAGE>


2.2. Cashless Exercise.
     -----------------

     (a) Payment may be made either in (i) cash or by certified or official
bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate
Purchase Price, (ii) by delivery of Warrants, Common Stock and/or Common Stock
receivable upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with Section (b) below or
(iii) by a combination of any of the foregoing methods, for the number of Common
Shares specified in such form (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to
reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to
the holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the holder shall thereupon be
entitled to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid
and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as
provided herein.

     (b) Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Fair
Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Purchase Price (at
the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant
for cash, the holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as
determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by
surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with
the properly endorsed Subscription Form in which event the Company shall issue
to the holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following
formula:

                    X = Y (A-B)
                        -------
                           A

            Where    X  =   the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued
                            to the holder

                     Y  =   the number of shares of Common Stock
                            purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a
                            portion of the Warrant is being exercised,
                            the portion of the Warrant being exercised
                            (at the date of such calculation)

                     A  =   the Fair Market Value of one share of the
                            Company's Common Stock (at the date of such
                            calculation)

                     B  =   Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such
                            calculation)

3.   Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.
     ----------------------------------------------------------

3.1. Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case at any time or from
     -------------------------------------------
time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate
with or merge into any other person or (c) transfer all or substantially all of
its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement
contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a
condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate
provision shall be made by the Company whereby the holder of this Warrant, on
the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, at any time after the consummation
of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such
dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or
Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such
effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to
which such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in
connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such holder had so
exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further
adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Asset Purchase Agreement

<PAGE>


3.2. Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the
     -----------
transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company,
prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered
the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable)
receivable by the holders of the Warrants after the effective date of such
dissolution pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust company having its
principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the holder or holders of the
Warrants.

3.3. Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or
     ---------------------
transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this
Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms
hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of
such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of
dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be
binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the
case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4. In the
event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the
consummation of the transaction described in this Section 3, then only in such
event will the Company's securities and property (including cash, where
applicable) receivable by the holders of the Warrants be delivered to the
Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2.

4. Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the Company
   -------------------------------------------
shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other
distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares
of Common Stock or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the
Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be
adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so
obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase
Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening
of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number
of shares of Common Stock that the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on
the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be
increased or decreased to a number determined by multiplying the number of
shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator
is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect
on the date of such exercise.

5. Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment
   -----------------------------
in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of
the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial
Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment
in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting
forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which
such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the
consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued
or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
outstanding or deemed to be outstanding and (c) the Purchase Price and the
number of shares of Common Stock to be

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Asset Purchase Agreement

<PAGE>


received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this
Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the
holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent of the Company (appointed pursuant
to Section 12 hereof).

6. Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial
   ---------------------------------------------------------------------

----------

issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the
Warrant. This Warrant entitles the holder hereof to receive copies of all
financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the

"Transferor Endorsement Form") and together with evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company demonstrating compliance with applicable securities
laws, the Company at its expense, but with payment by the Transferor of any

   ----------------------
Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in

an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to
