He also led the recent launch of ExpressJet's Embraer E175 aircraft program and previously held the position of System Chief Pilot.
"Scott knows airplanes, airlines and the industry. He has lived industry cycles and delivered for his pilots and customers," said Chairman and CEO Subodh Karnik. "He embodies the spirit of United Airlines' core4 principles: safe, caring, dependable and efficient. I am pleased to have him step into this role as we continue our rapid aircraft growth."
In addition to ExpressJet, Hall served in senior leadership roles at ATA Connection and flew as a line pilot for Northwest Airlink and Pan Am Express. Hall holds a bachelor of science degree in Aviation from Southern Nazarene University.
Wooley has chosen to retire after more than 20 years at ExpressJet and serving in nearly every Flight Operations leadership position.
