Default His name was.....

His name was Richard Ferris. He came up with a stupid name and a bad plan when it came to the airline itself.

As UAL bought Hertz, Westin and Hilton International the airline stagnated while other airlines grew. United spent money on Ferris' grand plan while other airlines ordered new planes and the airline industry as a whole became smaller as weaker airlines fell to the stronger airlines.

After Ferris left with his golden parachute the three companies were sold the name put back, United started to catch up with the other airlines.
