From the AP, as published on sfgate.com:

United Airlines chief executive James Goodwin resigned Sunday, saying it was time "for a new leader to guide the organization" which has struggled greatly since the Sept. 11 attacks.

Goodwin's resignation came two weeks ago after a letter he wrote to employees was made public. In it, he predicted the troubled airline could perish unless its fortunes were reversed.

Makes Nick's comment re: Creighton caretaking seem a likely scenario.
