NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required for annual financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related footnotes for Saker Aviation Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), which appear in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2010 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to make the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2010 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 not misleading have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any full year or any other interim period.

NOTE 2 – Management’s Liquidity Plans

As of March 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $728,796 and a working capital deficit of $256,559. The Company generated revenue of approximately $2,280,000 and incurred a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $75,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, cash flows included net cash provided by operating activities of $226,489, net cash used in investing activities of $173,173, and net cash provided by financing activities of $100,633.

The Company has a revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) dated March 3, 2009 and made jointly and severally by the Company and Airborne, Inc., a subsidiary divested by the Company in March of 2009 (“Airborne”), in favor of Birch Hill Capital, LLC (“Birch Hill”). The Credit Facility provides the Company with a $500,000 revolving line of credit. The Credit Facility is secured by all of the Company’s assets as well as the assets of Airborne. The Credit Facility requires interest payments based on outstanding balances at an interest rate of prime plus 350 basis points (6.75% as of March 31, 2010) and is payable upon demand by Birch Hill. Birch Hill retains a first lien against all of the assets of the Company and Airborne. The Company and Airborne are joint and several guarantors of borrowings under the Credit Facility. In the event of a sale of Airborne, Birch Hill is entitled to receive the first distribution of any related proceeds in the full amount of any outstanding against the Credit Facility.

The Company is party to a concession agreement with the City of New York for the operation of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport (the “Heliport”). Under this agreement, the Company must pay the greater of 18% of the first $5 million in program year revenue and 25% of revenue in excess of $5 million or minimum annual guaranteed payments that begin at $1.2 million in Year 1 and increase to approximately $1.7 million in Year 10. The Company also agreed, pursuant to this agreement, to make certain capital improvements and safety code compliance upgrades to the Heliport in the amount of $1,000,000 within two years following the receipt of building permits for the capital improvements and another $1,000,000 by the end of the fifth year of the Agreement. Company management believes that earnings from the operation of the Heliport will be sufficient to satisfy the minimum annual guarantee and to fund the capital improvements as required under the agreement.

The Company believes that it has sufficient liquidity to sustain its existing business for at least the next twelve months.

NOTE 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic net income per share applicable to common stockholders is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other instruments to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Potentially dilutive securities, consisting of options and warrants, are excluded from the calculation of the diluted income per share when their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock during the period.

The following table sets forth the components used in the computation of basic and diluted income per share:

	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
		2010*	2009*
Weighted average common shares outstanding, basic		33,164,453	35,674,793
Common shares upon exercise of options		—	—
Common shares upon exercise of warrants		—	—
Weighted average common shares outstanding, diluted		33,164,453	35,674,793

* Potential common shares of 9,503,587 and 13,725,298 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for all share-based payment awards are based on the grant-date fair value. The Company recognizes these compensation costs over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company incurred stock based compensation of $4,784 and $63,224, respectively. Such amounts have been recorded as part of the Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2010, the unamortized fair value of the options totaled $6,000.

Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the option. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

During 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) launched the FASB ASC as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental GAAP. The ASC was effective for interim and annual periods ending September 15, 2009. The ASC does not change GAAP. Instead, it takes all individual pronouncements that currently comprise GAAP and reorganizes them into approximately 90 accounting Topics, and displays all Topics using a consistent structure. Changes to the ASC subsequent to June 30, 2009, are referred to as Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”).

On June 30, 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-01, “Topic 105 – Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, amendments based on Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168 – The FASB Accounting Standard Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” This ASU amends the FASB ASC for the issuance of FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS”) No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” This ASU includes FASB SFAS No. 168 in its entirety. ASU 2009-01 was effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of ASU 2009-01 had no effect on the operating results or financial condition of the Company.

In December 2007, the FASB issued ASC 810, “Non-Controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51). ASC 810 established accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary (previously referred to as minority interests). ASC 810 also requires that a retained non-controlling interest upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially measured at its fair value. Upon adoption of ASC 810, the Company was required to report any non-controlling interests as a separate component of consolidated stockholders’ equity. The Company was also required to present any net income or loss allocable to non-controlling interests and net income or loss attributable to the stockholders of the Company separately in its consolidated statements of operations, if significant. ASC 810 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after January 1, 2009. ASC 810 requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements of ASC 810 are applied prospectively. The Company adopted ASC 810 and reclassified the non-controlling interest in FFH as a separate component of consolidated stockholders’ equity on January 1, 2009. The adoption of ASC 810 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operation or financial condition.

At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company has recorded in accounts payable an obligation for legal fees to such firm of approximately $52,000 and $136,000, respectively, related to legal services provided by such firm.

Effective November 2008, the Company executed a management agreement with a company who has a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary of the Company. The owners of this company include the children of a member of the Company’s Board of Directors. The agreement requires a management fee of 10% of gross receipts of the subsidiary and a “success fee” of 50% of pre-tax profits as defined. Total fees in the three months ended March 31, 2010 aggregated approximately $250,000, which was included in accrued expenses at March 31, 2010. As part of the fee arrangement, certain capital expenditures for the subsidiary are to be funded by the non-controlling interest, per the operating agreement between the parties.

NOTE 7 - Litigation

From time to time, the Company may be a party to one or more claims or disputes which may result in litigation. The Company's management does not, however, presently expect that any such matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations.

NOTE 8 – Subsequent Events

On May 7, 2010, the Company modified its agreements with two debt holders. The Birch Hill Credit Facility was modified such that the maximum line of credit was reduced to $500,000, which is fully extended at March 31, 2010, and the remaining $500,000 was reclassified into a note with a 36-month term with a 24-month balloon payment of outstanding principal and interest at 7% per year. The maturity date of the EuroAmerican Note was extended to March 1, 2012. The financial statements at March 31, 2010 reflect the above changes as if they were in effect on the report date.

Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read together with the consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. This Item 2 contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. Actual results may differ materially from those included in such forward-looking statements. Factors which could cause actual results to differ materially include those set forth at the end of this Item 2 under the heading "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements," as well as those discussed elsewhere in this report.

OVERVIEW

Saker Aviation Services, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a Nevada corporation, the common stock, $0.001 par value (the “common stock”), of which is publicly traded on the over the counter bulletin board system under the symbol “SKAS.OB”. Through our subsidiaries, we operate in the fixed base operation (“FBO”) segment of the general aviation industry. An FBO provides ground-based services such as fueling and hangaring for general aviation, commercial, and military aircraft; aircraft maintenance, and other miscellaneous services. We also provide consulting services for a non-owned FBO facility and serve as the operator of a heliport.

We were formed on January 17, 2003 (date of inception) as a proprietorship and were incorporated in Arizona on January 2, 2004. We became a public company as a result of a reverse merger transaction on August 20, 2004 with Shadows Bend Development, Inc., an inactive public Nevada corporation which changed its name to FBO Air, Inc. On December 13, 2006, we changed our name to FirstFlight, Inc. On September 2, 2009, we changed our name to Saker Aviation Services, Inc.

Our business activities are carried out at the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (Pennsylvania) International Airport, Garden City (Kansas) Regional Airport, Downtown Manhattan (New York) Heliport, and at Niagara Falls (New York) International Airport where we provide consulting services to the operator.

The FBO segment of the industry is highly fragmented - populated by, according to the National Air Transportation Association (“NATA”), over 3,000 operators who serve customers at one or more of the over 3,000 airport facilities across the country that have at least one paved 3,000-foot runway. The vast majority of these companies are single location operators. NATA characterizes companies with operations at three or more airports as “chains.” An operation with FBOs in at least two distinctive regions of the country is considered a “national” chain while multiple locations within a single region are “regional” chains.

REVENUE AND OPERATING RESULTS

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009.

REVENUE

Revenue increased by 31.1 percent to approximately $2,280,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared with corresponding prior-year period revenue of approximately $1,740,000.

Revenue associated with the sale of jet fuel, aviation gasoline and related items increased by 24.1 percent to approximately $1,080,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Revenue associated with the operation of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport (the “Heliport”) increased by 59.3% to approximately $1,066,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. Revenue associated with maintenance activities decreased by 35.2 percent to approximately $117,000 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Revenue associated with the leasing of aircraft and office space along with the management of non-owned FBO facilities decreased by 10.7 percent to approximately $19,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

The increase in revenue associated with the sale of jet fuel, aviation gasoline and related items was related to higher fuel costs, which offset a decline in volume of 8.7%. We generally price our fuel products on a fixed dollar margin basis. As the cost of fuel increases, the corresponding customer price increases as well. If volume is constant, this methodology yields higher revenue but at comparable gross margins.

The increase in revenue associated with the operation of the Heliport was related to higher levels of activity in helicopter landings and passenger counts.

The decrease in maintenance revenue was due to decreases in both charges for labor services and for parts. The primary reason for the decreases in both categories was a generally lower level of activity associated with jet aircraft domiciled at the Pennsylvania facility.

The decrease in revenue associated with the leasing of aircraft and office space along with the management of non-owned FBO facilities was directly related to a planned reduction in fees associated with the management of non-owned FBO facilities.

GROSS PROFIT

Total gross profit increased 54.9 percent to approximately $1,021,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2009. Gross profit as a percent of revenue increased to 44.8 percent in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to 37.9 percent in the same period in the prior year. The positive impact of the Heliport was a major factor in the year-over-year increase in gross profit, contributing approximately $755,000 and 70.8% of revenue in 2010 as compared to approximately $369,000 and 55.2% of revenue in the same period in 2009.

OPERATING EXPENSE

Selling, General and Administrative – FBO Operations

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses associated with our FBO operations were approximately $943,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2010, an increase of approximately $142,000 or 15.1 percent as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. The main factor in this increase was the Heliport, where operating expenses increased by approximately $168,000 or 26.8% in order to accommodate the higher levels of activity.

SG&A associated with our FBO operations, as a percentage of revenue, was 41.4 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared with 46.0 percent in the corresponding prior year period. Increased revenue in this reporting period more than offset the higher operating expenses, resulting in lower SG&A as a percentage of revenue.

Selling, General and Administrative – Corporate Operations

Corporate expenses were approximately $109,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing a decrease of approximately $45,000 as compared with the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was largely driven by a combination of lower professional expenses and lesser stock-based compensation expenses in the current year period as compared to prior year. Professional fees were lower in large part due the divestiture of subsidiary operations that occurred in March 2009 and for which no corresponding expense was incurred in 2010. Stock-based compensation expenses were approximately $60,000 less in the three months ended March 31, 2010 than they were in the same period in the three months ended March 31, 2009.

OPERATING LOSS

Loss from operations decreased by 89.7 percent to approximately $30,300 in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to approximately $295,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2009. Operating losses were offset by a combination of greater levels of levels of revenue and gross profit, which counterbalanced higher non-corporate operating expenses, as described above.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization from continuing operations was approximately $39,000 and $31,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was approximately $42,700 as compared to approximately $11,000 for the same period in 2009. The increase is largely attributed to the debt service on the EuroAmerican Note.

Net Income/Loss Per Share

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was approximately $75,000 for continuing operations as compared to net loss of approximately $310,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The decrease in net loss was as a result of the items discussed above.

Basic and diluted net loss per share was $0.00 and $0.01 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of March 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $728,796 and a working capital deficit of $256,559. We generated revenue of approximately $2,280,000 and net loss from continuing operations of approximately $75,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, cash flows included net cash provided by operating activities of $226,489, net cash used in investing activities of $173,173, and net cash provided by financing activities of $100,633.

We have a revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) dated March 3, 2009 and made jointly and severally by the Company and Airborne, Inc., a subsidiary we divested in March of 2009 (“Airborne”), in favor of Birch Hill Capital, LLC (“Birch Hill”). The Credit Facility provides us with a $500,000 revolving line of credit. The Credit Facility is secured by all of our assets as well as the assets of Airborne. The Credit Facility requires interest payments based on outstanding balances at an interest rate of prime plus 350 basis points (6.75% as of March 31, 2010) and is payable upon demand by Birch Hill. Birch Hill retains a first lien against all of our assets and the assets of Airborne. We and Airborne are joint and several guarantors of borrowings under the Credit Facility. In the event of a sale of Airborne, Birch Hill is entitled to receive the first distribution of any related proceeds in the full amount of any outstanding against the Credit Facility.

Under a concession agreement with the City of New York, we operate of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport (the “Heliport”). Under this agreement, we must pay the greater of 18% of the first $5 million in annual Heliport program year revenue and 25% of revenue in excess of $5 million or minimum annual guaranteed payments that begin at $1.2 million in Year 1 and increase to approximately $1.7 million in Year 10. We also agreed, pursuant to this agreement, to make certain capital improvements and safety code compliance upgrades to the Heliport in the amount of $1,000,000 within two years following the receipt of building permits for the capital improvements and another $1,000,000 by the end of the fifth year of the Agreement. We believe that earnings from the operation of the Heliport will be sufficient to satisfy the minimum annual guarantee and to fund the capital improvements as required under the agreement.

We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to sustain our existing business for at least the next twelve months.

Cash from Operating Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net cash provided by operating activities was $226,489. This amount included a decrease in operating cash related to a net loss of $74,976 and additions for the following items: (i) depreciation and amortization, $39,144; (ii) stock-based compensation expense, $4,784; (iii) accrued expenses, $222,063; (iv) accounts payable, $188,347, (v) inventories, $15,483, (vi) customer deposits, $38,190; (vii) security deposits, $50,033; (viii) accounts receivable, $1,495. The increase in cash used in operating activities in 2009 was offset by the following decreases: (i) prepaid expenses, $207,739, and (ii) deposits, $50,335. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, net cash used in operating activities was $812,083. This amount included a decrease in operating cash related to a net loss of $388,541 and additions for the following items: (i) depreciation and amortization, $46,943; and (ii) stock-based compensation expense, $63,224; (iii) accounts receivable, $177,124; (vi) prepaid expenses, $45,859; (v) customer deposits, $39,226; and (vi) accrued expenses, $88,849. The increase in cash used in operating activities in 2009 was offset by the following decreases: (i) gain on sale of subsidiary, $469,263; (ii) inventories, $35,819; and (iii) accounts payable, $379,685.

Cash from Investing Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net cash used in investing activities was $173,173 and was attributable to the purchase of property and equipment of $246,673 offset by the repayment of notes receivable of $73,500. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, net cash used in investing activities was $1,096,061 and was attributable to the purchase of property and equipment of $116,873, issuance of note receivable of $750,000, and net cash of discontinued operations of $229,188.

Cash from Financing Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net cash provided by financing activities was $100,633, consisting of proceeds from notes payable of $35,624 and an increase in non-controlling interest in subsidiary of $65,009. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, net cash provided by financing activities was $710,531, consisting primarily of a note payable of $750,000 in connection with the divestiture of Airborne offset by repayment of notes payable of $39,469.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Stock Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for all share-based payment awards are based on the grant-date fair value. We recognize these compensation costs over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term.

Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected life of the option. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued ASC 810, “Non-Controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51). ASC 810 established accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary (previously referred to as minority interests). ASC 810 also requires that a retained non-controlling interest upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially measured at its fair value. Upon adoption of ASC 810, we were required to report any non-controlling interests as a separate component of consolidated stockholders’ equity. We were also required to present any net income or loss allocable to non-controlling interests and net income or loss attributable to our stockholders separately in its consolidated statements of operations, if significant. ASC 810 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after January 1, 2009. ASC 810 requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements of ASC 810 are applied prospectively. We adopted ASC 810 and reclassified the non-controlling interest in our Heliport subsidiary as a separate component of consolidated stockholders’ equity on January 1, 2009. The adoption of ASC 810 did not have a material impact on our results of operation or financial condition.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this report may contain information that includes or is based upon "forward-looking statements" relating to our business. These forward-looking statements represent management's current judgment and assumptions, and can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements are frequently accompanied by the use of such words as "anticipates," "plans," "believes," "expects," "projects," "intends," and similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including, but not limited to, those relating to:

our ability to secure the additional debt or equity financing, if required, to execute our business plan;

our ability to identify, negotiate and complete the acquisition of targeted operators, consistent with our business plan;

existing or new competitors consolidating operators ahead of us;

our ability to attract new personnel or retain existing personnel, which would adversely affect implementation of our overall business strategy.

Any one of these or other risks, uncertainties, other factors, or any inaccurate assumptions may cause actual results to be materially different from those described herein or elsewhere by us. Undue reliance should not be replaced on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they were made. Certain of these risks, uncertainties, and other factors are described in greater detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 under the heading “Risk Factors” and in other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or to persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above and elsewhere in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expressly disclaim any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4T – Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive and financial officer) evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls were effective as of such date.

Based upon its evaluation, our management, with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer, has concluded there is a significant deficiency with respect to our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(e). Those rules define internal control over financial reporting as a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The weakness identified by management relates to the lack of sufficient accounting resources to apply certain U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

We currently lack adequately trained accounting personnel with appropriate U.S. GAAP expertise for certain complex transactions. Our management believes this weakness is considered a significant deficiency but does not rise to the level of a material weakness due to the compensating supervisory controls as discussed below.

As of the end of the period covered by this report and to address the identified weakness, we engage consultants or other resources to assist with the accounting and disclosure for complex transactions. Our President and Chief Executive Officer operates in a supervisory capacity to help compensate for the limited accounting personnel. This added level of supervision helps ensure the financial statements and disclosures are accurate and complete. This additional assistance was considered in concluding that our weakness in internal control is a significant deficiency. This added level of supervision helps ensure the financial statements and disclosures are accurate and complete.

In order to correct this deficiency, we plan to hire additional employees or consultants, as needed, to ensure that management will have adequate resources in order to attain complete reporting of financial information on a timely manner and provide a further level of segregation of financial responsibilities.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. Such limitations include the fact that human judgment in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns in internal control can occur because of human failures, such as simple errors or mistakes or intentional circumvention of the established process.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting; Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) as set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective at the reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2010.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, there were no changes to our internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected or were reasonably likely to materially affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Uncertainty and adverse changes in the general economic conditions of markets in which we participate may negatively affect our business.

Current and future conditions in the economy have an inherent degree of uncertainty. As a result, it is difficult for us to estimate the level of growth or contraction for the economy as a whole. It is even more difficult to estimate growth or contraction in various parts, sectors and regions of the economy, including the markets in which we participate. Adverse changes may occur as a result of soft global economic conditions, rising oil prices, wavering consumer confidence, unemployment, declines in or volatility of stock markets, contraction of credit availability, declines in real estate values, or other factors affecting economic conditions in general. Our results of operations are sensitive to changes in general economic conditions that impact consumer spending, including discretionary spending for use of private aircraft. The economic turmoil that has arisen in the credit markets (most recently with respect to the indebtedness of certain European countries such as Greece and Portugal) and in the housing markets has had an adverse effect on the U.S. and world economy, which may suppress discretionary spending and other consumer purchasing habits and, as a result, adversely affect our results of operations.

Item 4. Other Information

Birch Hill Forbearance Agreement .

Effective May 7, 2010, we consummated a Forbearance Agreement with Birch Hill Capital, LLC (“Birch Hill”).

The Forbearance Agreement modifies the Loan Agreements (as defined below) acquired by Birch Hill as of December 29, 2009 from Five Star Bank (“Five Star”) pursuant to an Allonge and an Assignment of Note and Note Documents (together, the “Assignment Documents”). Under the Assignment Documents, that certain $1,000,000 Line of Credit Note and related documents and agreements dated March 3, 2009 made jointly and severally by Airborne, Inc. (“Airborne”) and us in favor of Five Star (collectively, the “Loan Agreements”) were sold, assigned and transferred by Five Star to Birch Hill.

The modifications made to the Loan Agreements pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement include: (i) an agreement by Birch Hill to forbear (with respect to us only and expressly not with respect to Airborne) on demanding repayment of $500,000 of the principal amount outstanding under the Loan Agreements until May 5, 2012; and (ii) an agreement by us to make 24 equal monthly payments of interest and principal of $15,438.55 each (representing payments made on $500,000 of the principal amount outstanding under the Loan Agreements pursuant to a 36 month authorization period using an annual interest rate of 7%). The Forbearance Agreement also includes a general release made by us in favor of Birch Hill and its affiliates.

The Loan Agreements are more particularly described in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 2, 2009 and the Assignment Documents are more particularly described in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 29, 2009. The descriptions of the Assignment Documents and the Loan Agreements are incorporated herein by reference. Approximately $1,000,000 was outstanding under the Loan Agreements as of May 12, 2010.

First Amendment to EuroAmerican Promissory Note .

Also effective May 7, we consummated a First Amendment to Note in order to extend the maturity date of that certain Promissory Note made by us in favor of EuroAmerican Investment Corp. (“EuroAmerican”) from February 27, 2010 to March 1, 2012. The EuroAmerican Promissory Note is more particularly described in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 2, 2009, which description is incorporated herein by reference. Approximately $750,000 was outstanding under the EuroAmerican Promissory Note as of May 12, 2010.

SKAS 10-Q Quarter ended March 31, 2010
