                  IMMEDIATE ATTENTION - YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT

                                  June 7, 2004

Dear First Aviation stockholder:

We, the members of the board of directors (the "Board") of First Aviation
Services Inc. (the "Company" or "FAvS"), are writing to ask for your support at
the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 15, 2004. This year, The Wynnefield
Group, a dissident stockholder group controlled by Nelson Obus, is mounting a
proxy contest against your Board.

There are ONLY A FEW DAYS LEFT to make your vote count. If you have not voted
and followed the Board's recommendations, PLEASE VOTE TODAY.

THE BOARD  URGES YOU TO VOTE "FOR" THE  BOARD'S  TWO  NOMINEES  FOR  ELECTION AS
DIRECTORS,  MR.  MICHAEL C. CULVER AND MR. ROBERT L. KIRK, AND TO VOTE "AGAINST"
THE CUMULATIVE VOTING PROPOSAL.

o    SIGN AND RETURN ONLY THE COMPANY'S  WHITE PROXY CARD OR VOTING  INSTRUCTION
     FORM.

o    THROW AWAY AND DO NOT USE ANY PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS YOU RECEIVE
     FROM THE WYNNEFIELD GROUP.

If you have any questions or require voting assistance, please call D. F. King &
Co., Inc., which is assisting the Board, toll free at 1-800-628-8536.

THE CURRENT DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY, INCLUDING THE BOARD'S NOMINEES FOR
RE-ELECTION, ARE A GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS DEDICATED TO CREATING LONG-TERM VALUE
FOR ALL STOCKHOLDERS.

Each of the Board members has significant experience in the aerospace industry
and/or extensive operating and financial expertise. Specifically, the Board's
nominees: Robert Kirk was the chairman of British Aerospace Holdings, Inc.; and
Michael Culver co-founded FAvS and serves as its CEO and President since 1995.
In addition, a majority of the Board is independent. All of the non-employee
directors have chosen to receive their compensation for service to the Company
as directors in shares of the Company's common stock instead of cash, and none
of the current directors has ever sold any shares.

FIRST AVIATION'S STOCK PRICE HAS INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY DURING THE PAST 12
MONTHS.

The price of the Company's stock increased over 36% during the 12-month period
ending April 29, 2004. The Board believes this increase is in large part a
result of the steps the Company has taken under the direction of the incumbent
management and the Board, as well as the reviving economy and stock market.

WE THUS ASK FOR YOUR CONTINUING SUPPORT. Your vote is important. Please take a
moment to SIGN, DATE and PROMPTLY RETURN your WHITE proxy card or voting
instruction form in the postage-paid envelope provided.

                                             Very truly yours,

                                             The Board of Directors

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS REJECT THE WYNNEFIELD GROUP'S PROXY
SOLICITATION.

THE BOARD URGES STOCKHOLDERS TO VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF THE
BOARD'S NOMINEES AND AGAINST THE STOCKHOLDER PROPOSAL. YOU CAN VOTE YOUR SHARES
IN FAVOR OF THE BOARD'S NOMINEES AND AGAINST THE STOCKHOLDER PROPOSAL BY SIGNING
AND DATING THE ENCLOSED WHITE PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTION FORM AND
RETURNING IT IN THE POSTAGE-PAID RETURN ENVELOPE. If you receive this letter
with a voting instruction form from your broker, bank or other nominee, please
vote in accordance with the Board's recommendations, and sign, date and mail the
enclosed voting instruction form in the postage-paid envelope provided. Because
of the proxy contest mounted by The Wynnefield Group, your broker will not be
able to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting regarding either the election of
directors or the stockholder proposal unless it receives your specific voting
instructions - so please have your vote counted.

IF YOU RECEIVE A PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE WYNNEFIELD GROUP,
THE COMPANY'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS ASKS THAT YOU DISCARD IT. BUT JUST IN CASE YOU
ALREADY SENT IN THEIR PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS, WE URGE YOU TO SIGN AND
RETURN THE BOARD'S WHITE PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS PROMPTLY. YOUR LATER
DATED WHITE PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS WILL REVOKE ANY PRIOR PROXY. IT IS
ONLY YOUR LATEST DATED PROXY WHICH COUNTS.

             IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR REQUIRE VOTING ASSISTANCE,
        PLEASE CALL D. F. KING & CO., INC., WHICH IS ASSISTING THE BOARD,
                          TOLL FREE AT 1-800-628-8536.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. Please take a moment to SIGN, DATE and PROMPTLY RETURN
your WHITE proxy card or voting instruction form in the postage-paid envelope
provided.
