Colussy, Executive Vice President-Marketing and Services, to succeed F.C. Wiser as President, and that William Waltrip, Executive Vice President-Operations, Colussy be named to replace Colussy in the Marketing post. Wiser notified the Board last month that he will not seek re-election either as President or as a member of the Board at the annual shareholders meeting on May 9. Colussy has been with Pan Am since April 1970, first as Vice President-Marketing Development, then as Senior Vice President-Marketing and Services, the position he held until being elected Executive Vice President and member of the Board of Directors in 1976. Waltrip joined Pan Am in 1972 as Staff Vice President-Sched- Waltrip ule Planning. He was named Vice President-Airline Planning and Scheduling in 1974, and was elevated to Senior Vice President in 1975. Waltrip was elected Executive Vice President-Operations and a member of the Board of Directors in December 1976.D Dorothy Kelly honored Dorothy A. Kelly, the Pan Am purser who assisted the captain, fellow crew members and passengers from flaming wreckage in the aftermath of the Tenerife accident, has been given the Department of Transportation Award for Heroism. The award is the highest issued by the Department and is the first given since it was created in 1975. Mrs. Kelly, with her husband Paul, a Pan Am 707 flight engineer, at her side, received the award March 27 from Transportation Secretary Brock Adams in ceremonies at the agency’s headquarters in Washington. At the same ceremony, Federal Aviation Administration Awards for Distinguished Service were presented to Tenerife crew members Robert L. Bragg, the aircraft’s first officer who is now a 707 captain; and flight attendants Carla J. Johnson, Suzanne C. Donovan and Joan K. Jackson. Among those Mrs. Kelly aided during the tragedy were the 747’s captain, Victor F. Grubbs who had been standing dangerously close to a still-running engine. Seconds after she led Captain Grubbs away, the engine exploded.□ Aware employees gather from around the world The delegates spoke scores of different languages and came from more than 53 far-flung Pan Am stations, from Bangkok to Nairobi to Stuttgart. But they were together to discuss one common interest—Pan Am, and Aware’s plans for the upcoming year. In all, more than 250 Aware employees, representatives of their co-workers back home, converged on New York March 3 and 4, for their second annual things, as it was last month for our top management who met here in New York.

I believe in the team concept, and Aware represents that team concept. Everyone stands to gain by it,” Genoese said. Aware presented each of the three union leaders with a certificate of appreciation for their help and contributions to Aware’s goals during the past systemwide conference. Like Pan Am executives at their Executive Management Conference the month before, the employees heard status reports from senior corporate officers on Pan Am’s past year and a look ahead at plans and projections for the next. “We’re giving you some confidential material,” Executive Vice President-Marketing and Services Dan Colussy told the group, “but we think it is as important for you to know these he addressed the opening session. “And you are here today... because Pan Am people have been willing to give what is expected of them and then some more, more than anyone could really ask. You have indeed helped make 1977 Pan Am’s best year since 1968.” The group heard from three union leaders, Bill Genoese, Teamsters SecretaryATreasurer; Jack Barnwell, President of the Flight Engineers International; and Mike Lyon, Vice Chairman year. “We thank you for your constant support and guidance,” Executive Committee Chairman Felicia Fairchild told the three.

Low -fare standby service to London was introduced by Pan Am from nine U.S. cities beginning March 18.
