                       ORDER DISMISSING COMPLAINTS

      By Order of March 5, 1985, the Chief Judge directed the parties
 in the above-captioned proceedings, consolidated into Docket 42254, to
 submit recommendations by March 15, 1985, on further procedural steps
 to be taken, or otherwise to state why the proceeding should not be
 dismissed for lack of prosecution. In response, the Office of the
 Assistant General Counsel for Aviation Enforcement and Proceedings
 (Enforcement Office) filed a motion to dismiss the complaints in
 Docket 42254 on the grounds that the advertising campaign of
 Continental, to which the complaints refer, is not unfair or deceptive
 under section 411 of the Federal Aviation Act. Also, on March 15,
 1985, Continental Air Lines filed a motion to dismiss the enforcement
 proceeding reiterating that in its answers to the third-party
 complaints it had denied that the advertisements were unfair and
 deceptive, and stating that Continental had discontinued the
 advertisement campaign in issue during the summer of 1984 and had no
 intention of ever resuming it. No pleadings were filed by the
 third-party complainants and no answers were filed to the motions to
 dismiss.

     Frontier Holdings, Inc., and Western Air Lines, Inc., filed
complaints under section 411 of the Federal Aviation Act on May 22,
1984, and June 4, 1984, respectively, charging Continental with
engaging in unfair and deceptive practices and unfair methods of
competition in an advertising campaign claiming that your money goes
farther on Continental. Answers to the complaints were filed
by Continental denying the allegations that its advertisements
violated the Act. The Civil Aeronautics Board's Enforcemeot Division
