                              BASIS OF PRESENTATION


       The following unaudited pro forma financial data for DeCrane Aircraft
Holdings, Inc. is based on our historical consolidated financial statements,
adjusted to reflect our acquisitions of Carl F. Booth & Co. and ERDA, Inc.
during the year ended December 31, 2000, as required by Securities and Exchange
Commission rules. In addition, the pro forma financial data is also adjusted to
reflect three other less significant acquisitions we completed during 2000.

       Supplementally, we have also provided unaudited pro forma data for the
year ended December 31, 1999. The 1999 pro forma data is adjusted to reflect our
2000 acquisitions and our 1999 PATS, Precision Pattern, Custom Woodwork, PCI
NewCo., International Custom Interiors and Infinity acquisitions.

       Our 1999 and 2000 acquisitions are described in the notes accompanying
our financial statements. Unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of
operations are presented for each of the years in the two-year period ended
December 31, 2000. The statements reflect our acquisitions as if they had
occurred as of January 1, 1999. All of our 1999 and 2000 acquisitions had
occurred by December 31, 2000 and are therefore reflected in our historical
balance sheet as of that date.

       The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and
assumptions management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The
unaudited pro forma financial data and accompanying notes should be read in
conjunction with our historical audited financial statements and related notes
and the historical audited financial statements and related notes of the
companies we have acquired and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
on Forms 10-K and 8-K. The pro forma financial data does not purport to
represent what our actual results of operations or actual financial position
would have been if the transactions described above in fact occurred on such
dates or to project our results of operations or financial position for any
future period or date.

               Net income (loss)........................................................          207           208


   (8) Represents an increase in the provision for income taxes as a result of
       reflecting a pro forma provision for income taxes on the income of
       Precision Pattern, Custom Woodwork, PCI NewCo, Infinity and Carl Booth
       which were taxed as S Corporations or partnerships prior to their
       acquisitions, partially offset by a decrease in pro forma taxable income.
       The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate
       primarily due to goodwill amortization related to acquisitions not
       deductible for income tax purposes and state and foreign income taxes.
       The difference in effective tax rates between periods is mostly a result
       the relationship of non-deductible expense to income before taxes.

   (9) Reflects an increase in accrued preferred stock dividends and redemption
       value accretion. We sold 16% mandatorily redeemable preferred stock and
       used the proceeds to partially fund the ERDA acquisition.

       Ratio of earning to fixed charges (c) ...........................................        1.0x         1.3  x

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

       (a) EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes,
           depreciation and amortization, restructuring and asset impairment
           charges, acquisition related charges and other noncash and
           nonoperating charges. EBITDA, as defined, is the primary measurement
           we use to evaluate our operating groups' performance and is
           consistent with the manner in which our lenders and ultimate
           investors measure our overall performance.

           EBITDA is not a measure of performance or financial condition under
           generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA is not intended to
           represent cash flow from operations and should not be considered as
           an alternative to income from operations or net income computed in
           accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as an
           indicator of our operating performance, as an alternative to cash
           flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. The
           funds depicted by EBITDA are not available for our discretionary use
           due to funding requirements for working capital, capital
           expenditures, debt service, income taxes and other commitments and
           contingencies. We believe that EBITDA is a standard measure of
           liquidity commonly reported and widely used by analysts, investors
           and other interested parties in the financial markets. However, not
           all companies calculate EBITDA using the same method, and the EBITDA
           numbers we report may not be comparable to EBITDA reported by other
           companies.

       (b) Reflects depreciation and amortization of plant and equipment,
           goodwill and other intangible assets. Excludes amortization of
           deferred financing costs, which are classified as a component of
           interest expense.

       (c) For purposes of calculating the ratio of earnings to fixed charges,
           earnings represent net income before income taxes, minority interests
           in the income of majority-owned subsidiaries, extraordinary items
           and fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of:

           -  interest, whether expensed or capitalized;

           -  amortization of debt expense and discount or premium relating to
              any indebtedness, whether expensed or capitalized; and

           -  one-third of rental expenses under operating leases which is
              considered to be a reasonable approximation of the interest
              portion of such expense.
