                   B/E AEROSPACE AMENDS BANK CREDIT AGREEMENT,
                               COMMENTS ON OUTLOOK


     WELLINGTON, FL, September 29, 2003 - B/E Aerospace, Inc. (Nasdaq: BEAV)
today announced that it has amended its bank credit agreement and commented on
the outlook for the balance of calendar 2003.

BANK CREDIT AGREEMENT

     The amended bank credit agreement announced today provides for:

     o    a credit facility of $120 million, as compared to $135 million prior
          to the amendment,

     o    no principal repayments until the facility matures in August 2006, and

     o    an interest rate of 400 basis points over the Eurodollar rate. The
          rate paid by B/E would be about 5 percent based on current Eurodollar
          rate levels.

     Key financial covenants under the amended bank credit agreement include:

     o    leverage of 9.50 times EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,
          depreciation and amortization, as defined) through June 30, 2004,
          decreasing to 9.25 times EBITDA through December 31, 2004 and
          subsequently decreasing to 7.00 times EBITDA through December 31,
          2005, with a further decrease thereafter, and

     o    interest coverage of 1.15 times EBITDA through March 30, 2004,
          increasing to 1.20 times EBITDA for the remainder of 2004 and
          subsequently increasing to 1.60 times EBITDA through December 31,
          2005, with a further increase thereafter.

     B/E's borrowings under its bank credit facility currently total about $79
million, with cash and cash equivalents on hand currently totaling about $60
million.  JPMorgan Chase Bank is the administrative agent under the credit
agreement.

OUTLOOK

     Financial guidance for the remainder of calendar 2003 is now as follows:

     o    For the third quarter of calendar 2003, B/E expects to use about $10
          million of cash, largely due to an increase of similar magnitude in
          the projected level of accounts receivable consistent with an increase
          in product shipments, as well as $4 to $5 million of cash
          consolidation and integration costs.

     o    For the fourth quarter of calendar 2003, B/E expects positive cash
          flow and a small operating loss, including $1- $2 million of
          consolidation and integration costs.

     Projected consolidation and integration costs for the remainder of this
year reflect the planned elimination of an additional 100 positions by December
2003. Including these positions, B/E will have reduced its workforce by about
1,500 people since late 2001.
