Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

                  During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, the Company's Compensation Committee consisted of Ms. Orullian and
Messrs. Dempsey, McNamara, Browning, and Upchurch.

Report of the Compensation Committee on Executive Compensation

                  Overall Policy
                  --------------

                  Salary compensation of the Company's executive officers is determined by the Compensation Committee in conjunction
with the Company's entire Board of Directors.  The Committee's consideration of and decisions regarding executive compensation are
guided by a number of factors described below.  The objectives of the Company's total executive compensation package are to attract
and retain executive talent, to provide an economic framework to motivate the Company's executives to achieve goals consistent with
the Company's business strategy, to provide an identity between executive and shareholder interests through stock options and to
provide a compensation package that recognizes an executive's individual results and contributions in addition to the Company's
overall business results.

                  Salaries
                  --------

                  The key elements of the Company's executive compensation consist of salary, stock options, and bonuses.  The
Compensation Committee, in conjunction with the Company's entire Board of Directors, determines salary levels of officers and
employee stock option awards.  Because the Compensation Committee did not intend to target the base salary levels in effect for the
executive officers at a designated percentile of the salary levels in effect for other companies in the airline industry, there is no
meaningful correlation between the Company's salary levels and the rates of base salary in effect for those companies which are taken
into account in the Peer Group Index utilized for purposes of the stock price performance graph which follows this report.

                  Salaries for executive officers are determined by evaluating the responsibilities of the position held and the
experience of the individual, and by reference to the competitive marketplace for executive talent, including a comparison of
salaries for comparable positions at other airlines.

                  The salary levels of the executive officers of the Company for the next fiscal year are generally established by the
Compensation Committee at fiscal year-end and are reviewed and approved by the entire Board of Directors.  Specific individual
performance and overall corporate or business segment performance are reviewed in determining the compensation level of each
individual officer.

                  Mr. Addoms' base salary as Chief Executive Officer for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2002 is $235,000 per annum.
The Compensation Committee believes that Mr. Addoms' base salary for prior years was substantially below that of similarly situated
executives in the airline industry.  The Compensation Committee believes that Mr. Addoms' current annual salary is comparable to or
below the annual salaries for similarly situated executives within the airline industry.

                  Bonuses
                  -------

                  The Company paid bonuses to its executive officers in fiscal 2001.  The Compensation Committee and Board of
Directors approved these bonuses due to the continuing improved financial performance of the Company.  The Board of Directors agreed,
upon attainment by the Company for the fiscal year of pre-tax income of approximately $55.7 million (the "Performance Goal"), to pay
the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer a bonus equal to 75% of his base salary for the fiscal year and to pay the
Company's other executive officers a bonus equal to 50% of their respective base salaries for the fiscal year.  In addition, the Board
of Directors authorized the payment to the Company's executive officers of an amount equal to one percent of the pre-tax income in
excess of the Performance Goal, which amount was distributed among the executive officers in proportion to their base salaries for
the fiscal year.
