                 Disposition to be reinvested within 60 days to repair or
                 replace such assets with like assets, Borrowers shall deliver

                 received by the applicable Loan Party) to

                 proceeds have been reborrowed or applied to other Obligations

                 Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
                 reborrow such proceeds only for such repair or replacement. If
                 Borrowers fail to reinvest such proceeds within 60 days,
                 Borrowers hereby authorize Lenders to make a Revolving Advance
                 to repay the Obligations in the manner set forth in this
                 subsection 2.4(B)(2).

          FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Hawker Pacific Aerospace, a
California corporation ("U.S. Borrower") and Hawker Pacific Aerospace Limited, a
                         -------------
company organized under the laws of England and Wales (registered number
3459428) (the "U.K. Borrower") (collectively with the U.S. Borrower, the
               -------------
"Borrowers"), hereby jointly and severally unconditionally promise to pay to the
- ----------
order of HELLER FINANCIAL, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Lender"), at the
                                                          ------
office of Agent (as defined below) at 500 West Monroe Street, Chicago, Illinois
60661, or at such other place as the holder of this Amended and Restated Term
Loan B Note may from time to time designate in writing, in lawful money of the
United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal sum
of TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($2,500,000).

          This Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note is due and payable on
December 31, 2003.

          This Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note is one of the Notes
referred to in, was executed and delivered pursuant to, and evidences
indebtedness of Borrowers incurred under, that certain Loan and Security
Agreement dated as of December 22, 1998 by and among Borrowers, each of the
Lenders party thereto from time to time, Heller Financial, Inc., in its capacity
as Agent for the Lenders, and NMB-Heller Limited, as Funding Agent and
Collateral Agent (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or
otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"), to
                                                         --------------
which reference is hereby made for a statement of the terms and conditions under
which the loan evidenced hereby was made and is to be repaid and for a statement
of Agent's and Lender's remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.
Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise specifically defined shall have
the meanings ascribed to such term in the Loan Agreement.

          This Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note is issued in substitution
of the Term Loan B Note issued by Borrowers to Lender on December 22, 1998 (the
"Prior Note") and evidences an adjustment in the principal balance outstanding
under the Prior Note to reflect amounts paid in accordance with the terms of the
Loan Agreement prior to the date hereof.  The principal balance outstanding
under the Prior Note shall continue in all respects to be outstanding hereunder,
and this Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note shall not be deemed to evidence a
novation or payment and refunding of that outstanding principal balance.

          Borrowers further promise to pay interest on the outstanding unpaid
principal amount hereof from the date hereof until payment in full at the rate
from time to time applicable to Term Loan B as determined in accordance with the
Loan Agreement; provided, however, that upon the occurrence and during the
                --------  -------
continuance of an Event of Default, Borrowers shall pay interest on the
outstanding principal balance of this Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note at
the rate of interest applicable following the occurrence of an Event of Default
as determined in accordance with the Loan Agreement.


          Interest on this Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note shall be
payable at the times and from the dates specified in the Loan Agreement, on the
date of any prepayment hereof, at maturity, whether due by acceleration or
otherwise, and as otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement.  From and after the
date when the principal balance hereof becomes due and payable, whether by
acceleration or otherwise, interest hereon shall be payable on demand.  In no
contingency or event whatsoever shall interest charged hereunder, however such
interest may be characterized or computed, exceed the highest rate permissible
under any law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final
determination, deem applicable hereto.  In the event that such a court
determines that Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the highest
rate applicable hereto, such excess shall be applied in accordance with the
terms of the Loan Agreement.

          The indebtedness evidenced by this Amended and Restated Term Loan B
Note is secured pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents.

          Borrowers hereby waive demand, presentment and protest and notice of
demand, presentment, protest and nonpayment.

          Borrowers further agree, subject only to any limitation imposed by
applicable law, to pay all expenses, including attorneys' fees and legal
expenses, incurred by Lender in endeavoring to collect any amounts payable
hereunder which are not paid when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise.

          THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED TERM LOAN B NOTE HAS BEEN DELIVERED AT
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND INTERPRETED AND ENFORCED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS (AS OPPOSED TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS)
AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS.  Whenever possible each provision of
this Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note shall be interpreted in such manner
as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note shall be prohibited by or invalid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Amended and Restated Term Loan B
Note shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision
shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note.  Whenever in this Term Loan B reference
is made to Agent, Lender or Borrowers, such reference shall be deemed to
include, as applicable, a reference to their respective permitted successors and
assigns, and in the case of Lender any financial institution to which it has
sold or assigned all or any part of its interest in Term Loan B or in its
commitment to make Term Loan B as permitted by the Loan Agreement.  The
provisions of this Amended and Restated Term Loan B Note shall be binding


upon and shall inure to the benefit of such permitted successors and assigns.
Borrowers' successors and assigns shall include, without limitation, a receiver,
a trustee or debtor in possession of or for Borrowers.
