Flight Manager Named in LAX
---------------------------
LAXFO Chief Pilot Captain Gary Meermans has selected Captain 
Richard "Scotty" Scott as the new flight manager at LAXFO, 
replacing Captain Denny Giesea who is returning to line 
flying.  Captain Scott, a retired Commander in the United 
States Navy, joined United in 1989, has flown the B747-400, 
B747-100, B757/67 and A320 for United, and has served as an 
LCA in the DC-10 and A320 fleets.  He is currently an A320 
Standards Captain.  Captain Scott's new position is 
effective July 26.

Just a Reminder . . .
---------------------
If you receive an ACARS that reads FO DRG T, it means that 
upon arrival one or all of the cockpit crew may be asked to 
take a drug test.  FO stands for "Flight Officer," which 
refers to all cockpit crewmembers:  the Captain, the First 
Officer, and when applicable, the Second Officer.  Please do 
not contact Dispatch to request the names of the crewmembers 
to be tested, as they do not have that information.  When 
ACARS reads SW DRG T, indicating that one or all of the 
flight attendants may be asked to take a drug test, please 
pass the information on to the flight attendants so that 
they can prepare for the test.

Corporate Travel Hotel Desk Update
----------------------------------
Effective July 15, 1999, the LAX FOSR desk will be handling 
crew hotel and transportation accommodations previously 
handled by the Corporate Travel hotel desk.  Questions 
regarding layovers in LAX should be directed to the FOSR at 
(310) 342-8757.
