Greenwich, CT, March
17, 2008 — Megadata Corporation (OTC: MDTA.OB) announced today that Greater
Rochester International Airport (ROC) has purchased a subscription for the Audit module of the PASSUR
Landing Fee Management Program. This PASSUR solution helps airports maximize revenue through increased control over their landing fee revenue, and helps
ensure the landing fee program is implemented equitably and transparently for
all airport users.
“We
had three objectives for improving our landing fee program: increased fairness,
reduced effort, and greater revenue capture,” said David P. Damelio, Director of Aviation, of Greater Rochester
International Airport. “The PASSUR Landing Fee Audit module is going to get our
landing fee program where it needs to be, ensuring all our key goals are met.”
“We
welcome Rochester
Airport into the
fast-growing community of airports who manage their landing fee programs with us,” said Jim Barry, Megadata’s president and CEO. “The
airport industry has recognized that it needs to manage landing fees, and other
key business metrics, in a more professional and business-like manner, and
we’re honored that it has embraced PASSUR as a key partner in that evolution.”
The
PASSUR Landing Fee Management Program allows airports to take effective control
over this critical piece of their revenue stream. It provides a clear, defined
path for airports to follow – from auditing, to online billing to replace
airline self-reporting, and a complete professional services support package.
More than 25 airports now manage their landing fee program with PASSUR.

accurate and timely activity reports of arrivals and departures, based on the
