NOTICE OF REGISTRATION OF TRADE NAME

On April 21, 2005, Shuttle America Corporation (Shuttle America), a
certificated air carrier, requested that the Department register the
trade name “United Express” for use in certain of its air
transportation operations.

Part 215 of the Department’s regulations provides that any carrier
wishing to use an alternative trade name must first register that name
with the Department.  The rule further states that the Department may
register such name after the carrier gives notification to similarly
named carriers of the proposed use of the name.  In this case, we
requested that Shuttle America serve a copy of its application to
register the trade name on United Air Lines, Inc (United).  Since all
other similarly named carriers conduct business pursuant to operating
code-share agreements with United, no other notification was required. 
On April 28, 2005, Shuttle America submitted evidence that it had
complied with our request.

Under these circumstances, on April 28, 2005, we orally advised Shuttle
America that we had registered “United Express” as a trade name for
the carrier.  We confirm that action here.

Dated at Washington, D.C., April 28, 2005.
