Richard H. Judy
Mr. Judy has over 30 years of experience in the aviation industry, and is internationally recognized for his many inno-
vations in airport sery ice systems. For 18 years, he served as Director of the Dade County Aviation Department which
operates Miami International Airport and five other county airports. The Department is a large public enterprise with
over 1,000 employees and annual revenues in excess of $200 million, Mr. Judy has a comprehensive understanding of,
and practical leadership experience in, all aspects of airport planning, development, construction, operations, financ-
ing, and commercial activities. Mr. Judy is fully experienced in the development of domestic and international aviation
regulation, policy and law pertaining to airports, airlines, the environment and the consumer. In addition, Mr. Judy is
experienced in the negotiation of commercial contracts, and the formulation of the commercial aspects of international

ties. His shrewd sense of negotiating has led him to be requested on numerous occasions to represent his community,
his peers, his industry, and his country on almost every aspect of aviation.
Mr. Judy left the Dade County Aviation Department in 1990 and formed his own aviation consulting businesses, Judy
& Associates; Inc. and MIA Consultants. Relying on his internationally recognized skills as a manager, planner, nego-
tiator, financier and developer, Mr. Judy now provides both the public and private sectors with a broad range of man-
agement consulting services in all areas of airport service systems, commercial development policy, airline
negotiations, rates and charges analyses and methodologies, airport management, organizational structure, airport
transportation infrastructure, financial and master planning, and airport related commercial and operational services
and systems. Since 1995 Mr. Judy has been specializing in the Privatization of airports throughout the world.

Richard H. Judy
Page 2
Overview
Prior to becoming a consultant to the Chief Executive Officer of the PAA, Mr. Judy served as Interim
Commercial Director and Operations Director of the PAA. The overall goal of the combined
Commercial/Operations Division is to create a cost efficient, quality service and fair and equal opportunity
to all airport facilities and services to the fullest extent possible. An equally important goal is to optimize
the ability of the Authority to implement airport charges that are not anti -competitive or discriminatory and
to optimize non -aeronautical services and revenues such as retail and surplus land development. In order
to accomplish these goals, it was necessary for Mr. Judy to fully and fairly address the often competing
needs of all airport users, e.g. airlines, passengers, welkwishers, staff, MTRC, licensees, tourism industry,
PAA and government.
Airline Operations
Mr. Judy is involved in airline consultations which will shape all airport
operational aspects at the airport for many years, including the airport
charging schedule, related cost basis for formulating the airport charges,
and rates of return for future airport development. The conclusions will
form the bedrock for negotiating a commercial policy and charges
schedule that complies with international obligations concerning their
fairness, reasonableness, and level of economic return to the Authority.
This includes guidelines to comply with government monitoring and
approval processes involving airport charges. He completed the draft
use agreement to be entered into with the air carriers for their use of
airport facilities and exclusive accommodations. A preliminary review by
the major domestic Hong Kong air carrier, Cathay Pacific, resulted in
acknowledgement that the agreement was fairly crafted and ready for
distribution to all air carriers. In creating such an equitable agreement,
Mr. Judy has successfully avoided the need for protracted negotiations
between the two parties.
Revenue & Operating Costs - Forecasting and Budgeting
Mr. Judy completed a critical review of the professionally prepared
revenue forecasts, which resulted in many reservations concerning
specific revenue targets set forth therein and the assumptions used in
the forecasts. Therefore, Mr. Judy produced ongoing revised forecasts,
subject to commercial negotiation of airport support licenses, and
submitted them to Strategic Planning and Finance. In addition, Mr. Judy
devised a computer program designed to centralize all revenue and cost
assumptions to achieve a "real time" forecast update when any
assumption is reviewed. This is a critical tool for sensitivity analysis and
the development of substitute revenue targets.

Airport Rates, Fees and Charges
Mr. Judy developed policy and charging mechanisms to fair rates, fees,
and charges for airport commercial activities and services. The rates are
structured to be competitive against those of any other regional airport.
Airport User License Agreement
Mr. Judy prepared and negotiated a draft user agreement for air carrier
use of airport facilities and for the assignment of terminal
accommodations to all carriers. The agreement will shape the overall
airport charges and carrier terminal use policy of the Authority as it
relates to international obligations and future air carrier contract
relationships for accommodations to provide their air transport activities
in an efficient and competitive manner. Mr. Judy also developed
commercial policy and RFP documents for all major airport support
activities, including retail, fueling, cargo, catering, aircraft maintenance,
and general aviation.
Airside Businesses
Mr. Judy formulated Board approved policies for the multi -stage
competitive license award process and participated in the implementation
of the policy to date. He was instrumental in negotiating the Board
approved "competitive business policy" and unique license award
process. If the process is judiciously administered, and protected from
adverse "special interests," it will be one of the key elements of the cost
efficient service goal of the Authority.
Landside Development
Mr. Judy reviewed compensatory cost analyses for airport island land
creation in order to achieve a minimum payback scenario and to define
costs that play a strategic role in revenue returns from related Airport
Charges.

Overview
Mr. Judy was appointed Director of the Aviation Department in 1971. Responsibilities included the overall
operation, development, financing, business management, budget, and policy of Miami International Airport
and five other airports located in Dade County, Florida. He is internationally recognized for developing
Miami International Airport into one of the world's premier cost efficient and service oriented airports. He
developed and implemented countless new ideas for airport management and service systems to the point
where Miami International Airport was the byword for successful innovation within the industry.
Richard H. Judy
Page 4
The policies Mr. Judy implemented made Miami International Airport the most cost effective of airports for
airline operations and user services, while his stand on maintaining a competitive market for air
transportation in the community resulted in air fares 9% below the industry average and 23% below those
at comparable hubs. Many of the user systems and services now common within the airport industry were
developed and implemented by Mr. Judy. The following sections highlight almost two decades of Mr.
Judy's leadership and innovation as Director of the Dade County Aviation Department.
Business Management
Between 1968 and 1988, operating income increased to $233 million,
operating income per passenger increased from $1.37 to $9.71, and
revenue from commercial retail operations increased from $4.0 million to
$72 million.
Several new programs and strategies were developed and pursued to
achieve these results. First, Miami International Airport became the first
airport to introduce brand name concessionaires to airport terminals and
to use management contracts instead of concession agreements to run
commercial operations. Under a management agreement all revenues
flow to the airport. The company responsible for managing the day to
day commercial operation is paid a fee for the services provided. Such
management agreements give the airport control over the pricing and the
quality of the services. As a result of management contracts, financial
analysts have calculated that net revenues from commercial operations
at Miami International Airport are between 50% and 100% higher than
they would be under conventional concession agreements. (The British
Airports Authority has recently adopted the use of management contracts
for Heathrow Airport.)
Mr. Judy also developed the first use of short term use agreements for
airport facilities which allow the airport unparalleled flexibility in meeting
the needs of changing market conditions. Rents can be adjusted to fair
market values, and airport facilities can be utilized to the maximum extent
by reassigning them in the event of airline bankruptcy or changing
- operational patterns. Traffic levels following the Eastern bankruptcy of
1989, the Air Florida bankruptcy in 1984 and the Braniff bankruptcy in
1982 returned quickly to the pre -bankruptcy levels largely because Mr.
Judy's short term use agreements enabled the airport to make facilities
available for airlines wishing to replace lost service.
In addition, Mr. Judy developed and implemented the first internal airport
enterprise fund for the development of non -aeronautical facilities and
services that was independent of aeronautical revenues. The 1988
annual cash flow into this fund was $40 million and was projected to
grow to $100 million within 10 years (borrowing power of $500 million).
No other airport has such a fund because non -aeronautical revenues at
most airports are captured under the use agreements.

Financing
Mr. Judy was the first to undertake the task of convincing financial
institutions and bond rating agencies that the size and nature of the local
air transportation market and the ability to raise revenues without air
carrier approval should be the guarantor of airport revenues needed to
service debt, as opposed to the traditional reliance on long term lease
agreements with airlines. In addition, Mr. Judy developed and
implemented many forms of airport financing now widely used by airports
throughout the country, including:
• Development and implementation of the first special airport
revenue bonds for the construction of an air carrier maintenance
facility (while Comptroller).
• Use of tax free commercial paper as an airport financing source.
• Use by airports of back-up letters of credit with commercial
banks. At the time, this innovation saved 1/2% per year on the
price of the bonds issued.
• Use of variable rate bonds for airport debt financing purposes.
• Use of a liquidity line of credit providing flexibility on the timing of
bond issuance.
• Use of incremental financing of bond issue to provide capital and
incur debt service obligations only as the funding needs arose.
• Drafting of a citizen referendum item which passed and provided
ad valorem tax backing for an airport revenue bond issue. This
backing eliminated the need for bond insurance, without
financially impacting the local taxpayer.
- • Development of a non -tax supported financial program for long
term use in borrowing risk capital (accomplished as Deputy
Director of Dade County Aviation Department).
As a result of these financial firsts and Mr. Judy's overall management
practices at Miami International Airport, the bondarating for airport
revenue bonds climbed from B+ in 1968 to A+ at the time of Mr. Judy's
retirement from the airport. Due to the ability of the airport to provide
new competitive carriers with extensive operating facilities, the airport's
bond rating was neither undermined nor put on "credit watch" despite the
bankruptcy of Eastern Air Lines in 1989, which accounted for 31 percent
of the passenger traffic, Air Florida and Braniff Airlines in the early mid-
1980's, and Pan American, which accounted for 20 percent of airport
traffic.

Policy
Mr. Judy is an acknowledged leader in the fields of international aviation
policy, congestion and capacity policy (including the drafting of the
original Passenger Facility Charge legislation that was passed by Con-
gress), competition policy, airport pricing policy, airport financing policy,
airport funding policy, airport development policy, in addition to airport
environmental policy and narcotics and explosive detection policy.
Operations
During his career as Director, Mr. Judy transformed Miami International
Airport into the hub of Latin America and the Caribbean, a major air
service hub for American Airlines, a major destination for European
travelers, and one of the world's leading passenger and cargo airports.
At the time of his retirement as Director, Mr. Judy had succeeded in
making Miami the world's 8th largest passenger airport, 6th largest cargo
airport, 3rd in the world in terms of the number of airlines providing
service, and the 2nd largest U.S. international airport in both passenger
and cargo.
Since he began working for the Dade County Aviation Department in
1967, Mr. Judy has succeeded in increasing the number of passengers
handled from 9.5 million to 25 million, increasing the amount of cargo
handled from 194,000 tons to 750,000 tons (currently 1,000,000 tons),
increasing the number of airlines providing service from 37 to over 80,
and expanding the locations served from Miami International from
predominately domestic with only a few international destinations, to over
160 destinations today including most major cities in Europe, all major
cities in the Caribbean and Latin America, and several cities in the
Middle East.
Development
Mr. Judy was responsible for the implementation of over $4 billion
(money of the day) of self -financed capital construction and over $1
billion worth of conceptional space master planning at Miami International
Airport. Since 1968, under Mr. Judy's direction, the number of aircraft
gates was increased form 74 to 110 (most of the 74 were, replaced with
new gates) and the terminal space was increased from 0.6 million square
feet to 2.8 million square feet.
In the course of the physical development of Miami International Airport
under his direction, many innovations were successfully implemented.
The world's largest on -airport cargo area was developed, including 2
million square feet of cargo facilities. Miami's ancillary aviation facilities
were enhanced, including the development of the world's largest Airbus
Industries crew training center, and regional headquarters for Rolls Royce
and Cleveland Pneumatics. In addition, under Mr. Judy's direction, Miami
International Airport became the first airport to:

the world and recognized by the Federal Aviation Administration
as a tool to increase airfield capacity.
• design and use dual capability International/Domestic gates
which allow increased facility utilization, increased effective airport
capacity, shorter international to domestic or vice versa aircraft
turnaround, and significant airline operating cost savings.
• implement an airport wide database to integrate all service
systems for cross utilization by all airport users as needed.
• use in -transit passenger facilities in the U.S.
• use Transit Without Visa (fWOV) facilities.
• create dedicated centralized commuter aircraft facilities.
• cogenerate electricity using airport trash from international
aircraft.
• develop an integrated electronic cargo service and customs
clearance system for use by all cargo consignees and consignors
to track cargo from the supplier to the receiving consignor on a
real time basis.
In addition, Mr. Judy was instrumental in establishing the first successful
large scale general purpose free trade zone.
Budget
- During his career as Director, the revenues generated by Miami
International Airport and the other five airports in Dade County grew from
$13 million in 1968 to $250 million in 1990. Expenses incurred in the
operation of Miami International Airport and the five other airports in Dade
County grew from $4.3 million in 1968 to $144 million in 1990.

COMPTROLLER, DADE COUNTY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
Mr. Judy first joined the Dade County Aviation Department (formerly
Dade County Port Authority) in 1960 as Comptroller. His first major
responsibility was the extensive reorganization of the financial policy and
concession development program of the Authority. In accomplishing this
task, he developed a short-term financing program for the construction
of a $17,000,000 (1960 dollars) airport improvements project including
the first major concession mall and hotel in any terminal. This concept
has been copied at major airports throughout the world, and was
financed through a syndicate of banks throughout the State of Florida
utilizing concession revenues as security; the first such syndicate of its
kind. The success of Mr. Judy's program made it possible for the
Authority to complete its initial capital improvement program one year in
advance of schedule. The early completion also meant that the new
terminal rental and concession revenues totaling $1,500,000 (1957) would
also be received one year in advance of schedule.
Following completion of the above temporary financial program, Mr Judy
accomplished the following projects:

renegotiation of the then current landing fee schedule, which
expired in 1966. This cost/revenue control approach to
managing the budgeting and pricing of services is extensively
used today by most airports.
Mr. Judy's last major financial accomplishment as Comptroller for the
Authority was the sale of a $20,000,000 special revenue bond issue for
airline base facilities. This financial and commercial arrangement
between airlines and airports has been successfully used by most
airports throughout the U.S.

RICHARD H. JUDY
PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT
SUMMARY OF PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
Richard H. Judy is the former Director of the Dade County Aviation Department,
operator of Miami International Airport and five other county airports.
Mr. Judy guided the Miami international airport aviation system through a
challenging twenty year period of change and passenger, cargo, commercial and
net revenue growth that is continuing today under a new management team.
Miami International Airport during this period ranked among the top ten airports
of the world in terms of total annual passengers served and tons of cargo
handled, and for its ability to generate commercial revenue while maintaining an
internationally recognized low operating cost environment for its air carrier
service providers.
Mr. Judy began his career after receiving a Bachelor of Business Administration
degree from the University of Miami in 1953, and has pursued extensive post-
graduate studies in law, taxation and related subjects. During the early part of
his career, he accumulated a vast amount of experience in financial
management and commercial development in the private sector and in various
local and state government positions. In 1967, he became Deputy Director of I
the Dade County Port Authority, precursor of the Dade County Aviation
�: -1
Department, and was appointed Aviation Director in 1971.
A.
Mr. Judy is known throughout the worldwide aviation community, and is highly
respected for his skills as a manager, planner, negotiator, financier, developer of,
cost efficient airport commercial projects systems and project management. He
is consulted by airports and related industries in regard to every aspect of
terminal, airside and landside functional design and the development of cost
efficient airport services system and the integration of such system for the
efficient use by all users of the airport as and when needed. This has been
clearly confirmed by his dual interim appointment as Commercial Director and
Operations Director of the Provisional Airport Authority of Hong Kong for
fifthteen months for the most cirtical design and commercial development period
of the new Hong Kong Airport.
He has been recognized in a profile on his business acumen and
accomplishments in Forbes Magazine. For his development of the Miami
International Airport's master plan and related integrated functional and cost
efficient building system, Richard Judy won the prestigious annual Wright
Brothers Award. He has since received numerous commendations and awards.
Among these are the Bill Pallot Award of the International Center of Florida for
his contributions to international trade and commerce and the Max Schumacher
Memorial Award of the Helicopter Association International for his contributions
to the development of a regional helicopter infrastructure. In addition, he was
chosen Public Official of the Year by the Industrial Association of Dade County
in 1986, and was honored by the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce in "r-64
September of 1986 "[i)n recognition of his vision, ingenuity and business
acumen in making Miami International Airport the best and most cost efficient, I
and competitive in the world."
Richard Judy has distinguished himself through his total commitment to the
development of efficient airport systems and services. He is well known for his
success in transferring control of the use of all airport infrastructure and the
rates, fees and charges related to such infrastructure use from the air carrier
tenants and third party service providers back to airport management in order to
maximize the airport's ability to control airport costs and to provide air carriers
with operating facilities when needed and at competitive user charges, thereby
providing a vibrant and competitive air service market place for the benefit of
the airport's passenger and cargo users and the gross product of the region the
airpot serves.
He was Chairman Elect of the Airport Operators Council International; serves on
a special committee within the Academy- of Sciences to advise the U.S.
Secretary of Transportation on matters concerning air transportation safety and
the development of explosive detection systems for baggage, aircraft and
passengers; Chairman of the Public Facilities Council, Building Research Board of

"My dream is to privatize the air-

since 1971 has been director of the
Dade County Aviation Department,
which runs the airport. "But we
couldn't privatize it, so we enter -

us," says Judy. But as leases began
expiring three years ago, Judy began
cutting deals with the airlines, con-
solidating separate lounges into larger
spaces used by several carriers at a
time. With airlines now paying for
lounge services on a per -passenger ba-
sis, iami Intemational expects gross
r venues from lounge space to reach
$2 million this year and profits on
lounges to hit S 1.2 million a year.
Miami airport's 25 restaurants and
bars have also come in for Judy's en-
terprising. In 1984, as restaurant con-
cessions began coming up for renew-
al, Judy refused to renew. He is rip-
ping them up and remodeling them as
fast as he can, converting them into

pleasant, mall -like food c Profit
from nine new or redone ttaurants
has surged; some former "dead space"
is now producing good returns for the
first time. Example: In an area that
used to house only seating, Judy in-
stalled a high -margin seafood bar that
paid back its $700,000 startup cost in
seven months.
"We're making the airport some-
thing other than just a sterile environ-
ment where everything is shoved into
the comers," Judy says. "There are
many more things to come." Lastyear
each passenger spent about $7, on av-
erage. Judy says he wants to boost that
figure to about $20 before he is done.
To an extent, Judy's success can be
ascribed to good timing. As Miami
has grown rapidly, passenger
and freight volumes handled by
Miami International Airport
have surged. Although rankings
vary in these deregulated times,
Miami figures it's -tenth nation-
ally in flight originations. It
handles 23.5 million passengers
and some 614,000 tons. of cargo
per year. In 1971, when Judy
took over, the passenger and
cargo figures were .10.9 million
and 350,000 tons, respectively;
the real improvement in reve-
nues began in 1979, when Judy
began to "enterprise" the air-
port after years of thought and
study.
Credit Judy for maximizing
his advantages. He has built
gross operating revenues at Mi-
ami International to $150 mil-
lion last year from $92 million
in 1982. Profits —these are de-
fined as current revenues less
operating costs, . not including
depreciation —grew to $60 mil-
lion last year, from $46.9 mil-
lion in 1982. '
Judy, 56, is in the vanguard of
a new breed of airport manager.
Ten years ago most airport man-
agers were likely to be former
World War II pilots —fine aviators, but
not often great managers or entrepre-
neurs. But . airports, almost despite
themselves, have become large com-
mercial centers, with captive custom-
ers —not just passengers, but the air-
lines as well. Judy's skill has been
tapping that customer base.
A Pennsylvania coal miner's son,
Judy earned a bachelor's degree in
business administration from the
University of Miami and did postgrad-
uate work in law and taxation.' He
went into public service —on ally
as comptroller for the Dade ounty
Port Authority. He has been in the
public sector ever since, with the ex-
ception of a brief stint with th,
nance department of a shipbuilairg
company. Thus he's largely self-
taught as a restaurateur, hotelier and
cargo handler and has no precon-
ceived notions of what an airport
ought to be.
Why don't more big airport manag-
ers follow in Judy's footsteps? One
reason is that Judy enjoys more inde-
pendence than do most airport man-
agers. At New York's John F. Kennedy
Airport, for instance, different au-
thorities run various aspects of the
airport, such as the fueling system or
cargo handling. At Miami, by con-
trast, Judy has complete authority.
"I'm like the head of a conglomer-
ate," Judy says as he races through his
airport with boundless energy, stop-
ping only to light a cigarette. In es-
sence he is equal parts planner, nego-
tiator, financier, administrator and
even designer for the 3,200-acre air-
port and its 130,000 square feet of
retail and restaurant space.
He is not short on self-confidence.
Says Judy, who makes $100,000 a
year: "I'll challenge any $400,000
chief executive to a management duel
any day."
Judy's enterprising of the airport be-
gan in 1979.On behalf of Miami Inter-
national he bought the airport hotel
for $4.7 million from International
Airport Hotel Systems. Judy wanted
the hotel because he thought it should
be expan$ed and upgraded, but the
owner didn't have the money. Judy
bought it and refurbished it into a
first-class hotel; today an atrium and
restaurant are under construction.
Despite $15 million in remodeling
costs, profits from the 270 rooms have
doubled, he says, to a likely $4.5 mil-
lion this year.
About a year ago Judy introduced
air cargo services for smaller carriers.
He predicts that in fiscal 1988 (ending
next Sept. 30) his small carriers'
freight operation will handle 120 mil-
lion pounds of cargo, about 10% of all
Miami International cargo, and earn
$3.5 million. Even so, the small car-
riers' cargo -handling costs will be re-
duced by 50%.
Judy's aggressive style, dicta-
torial manner and outspoken
opinions have ruffled feathers
.around southern Florida, espe-
cially the feathers of conces-
sionaires that Judy has cut out.
Not a few people worry about
his autonomy and the specula-
tive nature of some of his uses
of public money.
But Judy has results on his
side. Gross revenues from Mi-
ami International's terminal
concessions—$64 million in
1986—made up nearly half of
the airport's gross operating rev-
enues (the other half comes
mainly from landing fees, rent,
parking and taxi fees). No other
major U.S. airport even comes
close. New York's JFK, for ex-
ample, gets $21 million in gross
revenues from concessions.
Miami's consumer revenues
help Judy keep the airport's
landing fees and airline rents
proportionately lower than
those of most major airports.
Judy quit playing golf be-
cause he found he played on
Wednesdays, by lifelong habit a
workday. "I'm suspicious of
any executive who plays golf," he
says. Now he spends his time work-
ing. He works 12-hour days and
comes into the office several hours
on both weekend days.
"You know why I do that?" de-
mands Judy. "Because if you're here
during the peak times, you can see
what your airport will be like when
it's running at peak 365 days a year."
What with passenger air traffic
through Miami expected to increase
4.4% annually through 1990, then by
3.2% annually until the end of the
century, Judy knows he'll have no end
of opportunities for enterprise in the
years ahead. ■

2. SECONDMENT FROM JUDY & ASSOCIATES TO INTERIM DIRECTOR OF
OPERATIONS AND INTERIM DIRECTOR OF COMMERCIAL DIVISION OF THE
PROVISIONAL AIRPORT AUTHORITY OF HONG KONG
3. DIRECTOR, DADE COUNTY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
Appointed Director of the Aviation Department in 1971. Responsibilities
included the overall operation, development, financing, business
management, budget, and policy of Miami International Airport and five other
airports located in Dade County, Florida.
He was responsible for developing Miami International Airport into one of the
world's premier cost efficient and service oriented competitive airports. He
developed and implemented countless new ideas for airport management and
service systems to the point where Miami International Airport was the
byword for successful innovation within the industry.
Over his two decades of leadership he became widely respected throughout
the aviation community for his skills as a planner, negotiator, financier, and
administrator. The policies Mr. Judy implemented made Miami International
Airport the most cost effective of airports for airline operations and user
services while his stand on maintaining a competitive market for air
transportation in the community resulted in air fares 9% below the industry
average and 23% *below those at comparable hubs. Many of the user
systems and services now common within the airport industry were
developed and implemented by him.
He is consulted by airports and related industries in regard to every aspect of
terminal, airside and landside services facilitation including commercial
development.
Highlights of almost two decades of leadership as Director include:
3.1 OPERATIONS
During his career as Director, Miami International Airport became the
hub -of Latin America and the Caribbean and a major air service hub
for American Airlines; diversified into a major destination for European
travelers, and became one of .the world's leading passenger and cargo
airports. Activities at Miami International Airport account for 20% of
the Gross Product of Dade County, directly providing 25,000 jobs.
At his time of retirement as Director, Miami was the world's 8th
largest passenger airport, 6th largest cargo airport and was ranked
3rd in the world in terms of the number of airlines providing service.
Miami become the 2nd largest U.S. international airport in both
passenger and cargo.
SE()PV CM,",

Since 1968 the number of passengers handled increased from 9.5
million to 25 million, the amount of cargo handled increased from
194,000 tons to 750,000 tons (currently 1,000,000 tons), the
number of airlines providing service increased from 37 to over 80.
From 1968 to his retirement, the locations served from Miami
International grew from being predominately domestic with only a few
international destinations, all in Latin America, to over 160
destinations today including most major cities in Europe, all major
cities in the Caribbean and Latin America, and several cities in the
Middle East.
3.2 DEVELOPMENT
During his directorship, Miami International Airport developed from a
1950's vintage facility designed for piston aircraft into a state of the
art terminal and air field. .
Over $4 billion (money of the . day) of self financed capital
construction has taken place and over $1 billion worth of
conceptional space master planning was completed to develop Miami
International Airport to its maximum possible capacity during the
1990 decade. Since 1968, the number of aircraft gates increased
form 74 to 110 (most of the 74 were replaced with new gates) and
the terminal space increased from 0.6 million square feet to 2.8
million square feet.
In the course of the physical development of Miami International
Airport under his direction the following innovations were successfully
implemented:
• First design and use of displaced runway thresholds for noise
abatement purposes.
• First design and use of. high speed exit taxiways now used
throughout the world and recognized by the Federal Aviation
Administration as a tool to increase airfield capacity.
• First design and use of dual capability Intemational/Domestic
gates which- allow increased facility utilization, increased
effective airport capacity, shorter- international to domestic or
vice versa .aircraft turnaround and significant airline operating
cost savings.
First airport to implement an airport wide database to integrate
all service systems for cross utilization by all airport users as
needed.

• Functional design and first use of the second generation
Westinghouse people mover cars now used at Gatwick Airport,
Orlando and other airports throughout the world.
• First U.S.- In -transit passenger facilities.
• First Transit Without Visa (TWOV) facilities.
• First airport operated first class Club Lounge facilities.
• First dedicated centralized commuter aircraft facilities.
. First to cogenerate electricity using airport trash from
international aircraft.
The development of ancillary aviation' facilities including the
world's largest Airbus Industries crew training center, and
regional headquarters for Rolls Royce and Cleveland Pneumatics.
The development of the world's largest on -airport cargo area
including 2 million square feet of cargo facilities.
• The first on -airport airport operated child care center.
• The first on -airport satellite learning center providing education
through the first grade.
• Instrumental in establishing the first successful large scale
general purpose free trade zone.
• First airport to develop an integrated electronic cargo service and
customs clearance system for use of all cargo consignees and
consignors to track cargo from the supplier to the receiving
consignor on a real time basis.
3.3 FINANCING
Was first to undertake the task of convincing the financial institutions
and bond rating agencies that the size and nature of the local air
transportation market and the ability to raise revenues without air
carrier approval was the guarantor of airport revenues needed to
service debt as opposed to the traditional reliance on long term lease
agreements with airlines. Developed and implemented many forms of
financing now widely used. by airports throughout the country.
Developed and implemented the first special airport revenue bonds
for the construction of an air carrier maintenance facility (while
Comptroller).
SE a i'Vv: CIRA r r

First airport to use tax free commercial paper.
• First airport to use back-up letters of credit with commercial
banks. At the time this innovation saved 1/2% per year on the
price of the bonds issued.
• First airport to float variable rate bonds.
• First airport to use a liquidity line of credit providing flexibility on
the timing of bond issuance.
• First airport to use incremental financing of bond issue to provide
capital and incur debt service obligations only as the funding
needs arose.
• Drafted citizen referendum item which passed and provided ad
valorem tax backing for airport_ revenue bond issue. This backing
eliminated the need for bond insurance, without financial impact
on the local taxpayer.
As a result of these financial firsts and the overall management
practices at Miami International Airport, the bond rating for airport
revenue bonds climbed from B+ in 1968 to A+ at the time of Mr.
Judy's retirement from the airport. ' The bond rating was not
undermined _ nor the rating put on 'credit watch' despite the
bankruptcy of Eastern Air Lines in 1989 (accounting for 31 % of the
passenger traffic), Air Florida and Braniff Airlines in the early mid
1980's and Pan American due to the ability of the airport to provide
immediately new competitive carriers with extensive operating
facilities (gates) such as those provided to American Airlines to begin
a first phase twice daily departure hub.
3.4 BUSINESS MANAGEMENT
Since 1968, operating -income increased to $233 million in 1988.
Operating income per passenger increased from $1.37 to $9.71.
Revenue from commercial retail operations increased from $4.0
million in 1968 to $72 million in 1988.
The new programs and strategies that were developed and pursued to
achieve these results include:
• Management Contracts. Miami International Airport became the
first airport to use management contracts instead of concession
agreements to run commercial operations. Under a management
agreement all revenues flow to the airport. The company
responsible for managing the day to day commercial operation is
paid a fee for the services provided. Such management
8=�LOPYV, C
agreements give the airport control over the pricing and the quality
of the services. As a result of management contracts, financial
analysts have calculated that net revenues from commercial
operations at Miami International Airport are between 50% and
100% higher than they would be under conventional concession
agreements. The 256 room airport hotel operated by the airport
using a management contract returns greater net revenue to the
airport than a concession agreement hotel with 1,700 rooms.
Management contracts have been applied to the airport hotel,
Duty Free shops, Newsstands, all restaurants, gift shops, first
class club lounges, cargo handling facilities and services, parking
garages, janitorial and porter services, bag check room service,
child care center and the satellite learning center.
• Short term use agreements. Developed the first use of short term
use agreements for airport .facilities which allow the airport
unparalleled flexibility in meeting the needs of. changing market
conditions. Rents can be adjusted to fair market values, and
airport facilities can be utilized to the maximum extent by
reassigning them in the event of airline bankruptcy or changing
operational patterns. Traffic levels following the Eastern
bankruptcy of 1989, the Air Florida bankruptcy in 1984 and the
Braniff bankruptcy in 1982 returned quickly to the pre -bankruptcy
levels largely because short term use agreements at Miami
International airport have enabled the airport to make available
facilities for airlines wishing to replace lost service. This flexibility
has resulted in the maintenance of the Airport's A+ Bond Rating
the highest available rating being assigned to airports by the rating
agencies such as Moodys.
• Developed and implemented the first independent internal airport
enterprise fund for the development of non aeronautical facilities
and services independent of aeronautical revenues. The 1988
annual cash flow into this fund was $40 million and it was
projected to grow -to $100 million within 10 years (borrowing
{power of $500 million). No other airport has such a fund because
the revenue sources are controlled by the air carrier users under
their airport use agreements.
• Developed and implemented Techniport, and positioned it to
become an - export trading company aimed at developing
international trade within the community.
• Developed and implemented numerous minority programs which
have since become the model for use by Dade County's HUD, and
the Public Health Trust. The FAA uses Miami as the example of a
successful minority program. The cornerstone of the minority
programs at Miami International Airport was a Miscellaneous
9 CRA
Construction and Design Contract which provided extensive
opportunities for minority contractors to participate in millions of
dollars of airport construction opportunities.
3.5 BUDGET
During his career as Director, the revenues generated by Miami.
International Airport and the other five airports in Dade County grew
from $13 million in 1968 to $250 million in 1990. Expenses incurred
in the operation of Miami International Airport and the five other
airports in Dade County grew from $4.3 million in 1968 to $144
million in 1990.
3.6 POLICY
Fought the banning of Stage 1 aircraft operations in the United
States, pending. the hush kit installation, and was successful in
overcoming the opposition of all major U.S. airlines, all aircraft
manufacturers, all major U.S. airports, and the federal government
while forging a cooperative alliance of local interests to protect the
international traffic base and its economic benefits.
Wrote and was instrumental in the enactment of the Air Carrier
Smuggling Prevention Program in the 1988 Drug Bill, overcoming the
opposition of the federal government.
Acknowledged leader in the fields of international aviation policy,
congestion and capacity policy (including the drafting of the original
Passenger Facility Charge legislation that was passed by Congress),
competition policy, airport pricing policy, airport financing policy,
airport funding policy, airport development policy, in addition to
airport environmental policy and narcotics and explosive detection
policy.
Acknowledged leader in shaping the aviation related policies of the
Federal Inspection Services. Many innovative programs have been
developed at Miami International Airport for the inspection. of
international arriving passengers and cargo. The success of these
programs has given Miami International Airport the best passenger
clearance times of any U.S. airport. The recently released U.S.
Customs master plan for passenger processing in the 1990's is to a
large extent based upon the practices implemented at Miami during
the 1980's.

DEPUTY DIRECTOR, DADE COUNTY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
Moved into the position of Deputy Director at the request of the Director and
civic, business, and aviation leaders within the community.
Primary responsibility was the development of a new Airport within the
system of airports in South Florida to serve as a major training airport with
the potential to develop into a regional commercial airport to the
Southeastern United States. Progress during the project included execution
of inter -governmental agreements as to the site location, actual site location,
community acceptance of 40 square mile site, concept financing without
taxes, aviation industry acceptance and participation, site acquisition, first
facilities under construction, environmental study underway, master facility
plan underway, high speed (170 mph) air cushion bus demonstration project
study underway, 1,000 food wide ground transportation corridor to the new
airport site. (The development of the site as a commercial airport was halted
by agreement with the U.S. government_ pending location of a new site and
replacement by the U.S.)
Another major responsibility was the development of a non -tax supported
financial program for the long term use in borrowing risk capital.
COMPTROLLER, DADE COUNTY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
First joined the Dade County Aviation Department (formerly Dade County
Port Authority) in 1960 as Comptroller. First - major responsibility was the
extensive reorganization of the financial policy and concession development
program of the Authority.
First accomplishment was the development of a short-term financing
program for the construction of a $17,000,000 (1960 dollars) airport
improvements project including the first major concession mall and hotel in
any terminal. This concept has been copied at major airports throughout the
world. This was financed through a syndicate of banks throughout the State
of Florida utilizing concession. revenues as security; the first such syndicate
of its kind. The success of this program made it possible for the Authority to
complete its initial capital improvement program one year in advance of
schedule. The early completion also meant that the new terminal .rental and
concession revenues. totaling $1,500,000 (1957) would also be received one
year in advance of schedule.
After completion of the above temporary financial program, accomplished
the following projects:
• The renegotiation of the airport use agreements with major airlines. The
agreements provided a date certain for the removal of airline control over
the provision of new airport facilities and the ability of the airport to
independently adjust landing fees and other rates, fees and charges.
,
:,i_OPW/CRA

• The settlement of the first major domestic airline fees and charges
discrimination suit.
• Installation of a cost system integrated with all other related airport
systems database to establish a rate base for all the fee and rental
schedules. This cost system received special attention from the local
members of the National Association of Accountants. The cost system
was to be used as a basis for the settlement of the foreign airline rate
case and was to be used in the renegotiation of the then current landing
fee schedule which expired in 1966 and the - cost/revenue control
approach to managing the budgetary and pricing of services is
extensively used today by most airports.
• Last major financial accomplishment as Comptroller for the Authority was
the sale of a $20,000,000 special revenue bond issue for airline base
facilities. This financial and commercial arrangement between airlines
and airports has been successfully used by most airports throughout the
U.S.
G. TRANSPORTATION
COMPTROLLER, STATE OF FLORIDA ROAD DEPARTMENT
Joined the State Road Department* in 1962 as Comptroller with the primary
responsibility of reorganizing. the financial operation of the Department.
Included among the many financial improvements during his term of employment
are the following:
• Drafted and led the passage of a state law and constitutional amendment that
fairly distributed the secondary gas taxes to the large urban areas of the State,
was cited for his outstanding work in developing new accounting and auditing
systems that expedited financing of major federal and state highway systems.
• The financing for the extension of the Florida Turnpike in Dade County and the
development of most of the community's existing expressway system.
• The development and implementation of a federal -aid contracting and collection
system known as the "Current Billing System' which resulted in the expedition
of the federal -aid construction program of Florida by some $25,000,000 and
over 750,000 in the total U.S.(1990 dollars - 15 billion). The 'Current Billing
System" eliminated the need for Dade County to sell an approved $40,000,000
of bonds to advance finance a portion of the interstate system in Dade County.
Among many other substantial savings, this system made possible the direct
saving of approximately $15,000,000 in interest payments from Dade County's
ad valorem taxes.

• The design of a master credit card system for the control of motor vehicle fuel
purchases for the State Road Department and all other state agencies.
• The implementation of new document flow systems which have made possible
substantial savings by reducing costly 'red tape."
• The use of new audit programs and reporting systems to management to aid in
the efficient expenditure of state tax resources.
• The development of financial funding concepts for construction of the first non -
toll and non -interstate expressway system constructed in Florida.
• The implementation of .a new investment program for department funds being
temporarily held for road construction disbursement which has resulted in
substantial excess interest earnings since 1962.
• The development of a financial partnership concept between the large urban
counties and the Florida State Road Department to expedite the advance design
of urban roads and expressways in counties of 50,000 population or more.
H. OTHER EXPERIENCE

(PROVIDED UPON REQUEST)
Beyond the realm of airport management, Richard H. Judy has been at the forefront
of developing and implementing industry wide practices and policies that have
shaped the development of the air transportation industry. He is well known for the
positions he has developed on such issues as airport environmental impacts, airline
competition policy, airport capacity and congestion policy, international aviation
policy, airport development policy, federal inspection policy, narcotics interdiction
policy, airport charges policy, and airport funding policy. For the. past ten years he
has become known as a prominent and even handed spokesman for the public
interest in these and other matters.
Many of Richard Judy's accomplishments are the result of his abilities as a
negotiator. His shrewd sense of negotiating has led him to be requested on
numerous occasions to represent his community, his peers, his industry, and his
country on almost every aspect of aviation.
Mr Judy is personally responsible for these developments. His innovative
management talents have made many of these developments successful where
others have not even attempted. He has the reputation of schematically designing
all facilities himself before turning them over to architects for final design
execution. He has the reputation for finding new and cost effective ways of testing
designs before going into the architectural and construction stages. For example,
new taxiway and lighting configurations, at Mr. Judy's suggestion, were tested by
professional pilots by reprogramming aircraft simulators with each configuration,
safeguarding millions from having to be spent in the event the 'drawing board"
configurations proved to be impractical. He has the reputation for innovation. He
constructed -a tunnel under a runway where the water table is a mere three feet
below ground level. He shifted an entire runway 150' laterally to make room for a
needed parallel taxiway and the extension of several concourses to provide
increased capacity. Industry planners had failed to find a solution to the problem.
He has been sought by the National Academy of Sciences to help develop the
specifications for Computer Aided Design for buildings. He has received numerous
design and construction awards for facilities that vary in purpose from a heliport to
a duty free shop.
Mr. Judy has developed the commercial operations and airport integrated building
and use systems and related user services of Miami International Airport to the
point where many consider the airport at the most successful and advanced airport
in the world. This achievement has been accomplished by innovative thinking,
prudent business management and entrepreneurial skill not usually associated with
public enterprise.

Achievements At -A -Glance
June 8, 1994
The following lists, is not particular order, the major word produced during the past 19 months
effective October 1992.
Passenger Terminal Building Level Chances & Redesign
This fundamental project achievement evolved out of a series of critical functional
reviews of the then current terminal functional design including all airport service
systems and their operational and integration requirements. The review played the major
role in resolving the functional service designs, accommodation and operational issues
that the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the tourism industry,
amongst others, found fundamentally unacceptable with the multi -level design and related
ground transportation infrastructure then being proposed by the design architect. An
extensive list of other functional design concerns of IATA have also been successfully
addressed.
The current functional systems design direction is now accepted and supported by all
airport user groups except several that have been modified by the PAA due to costs.
Aircraft Maintenance Services
Competitive tender documents completed.
Cargo Processing Terminal
■ As above.
Aircraft Catering
■ As above.
Aviation Fuel Service System
■ As- above.
Airlort Utilities and Services
Lead the Authority's commercial planning and negotiation effort with respect to the
supply of all utilities and services.
Ramp Handling and Baggage Handling Services
■ Operating position completed vis-a-vis number of operators, scope of services,
etc. and is now -ready for the beginning of the license award process competition.
■ The issue of international obligations regarding competitive service providers have
been, addressed and resolved.

■ The policy for airline self -handling has been developed for air. carrier
consultation. This impacts on every aspect of the Airport Support Services
concerning air carrier ground handling activities from passenger check -in to
aircraft push back.
Airline Operations
■ A major, global airline consultation document has been prepared and issued to all
Kai Tak airline users.
■ The consultation process, which will take 9-12 months, will shape all airport
operational aspects for many years including the Airport Charging Schedule,
related cost basis for formulating the Airport Charges and rates of return on
equity and net assets for future development. The conclusions will form the
bedrock for operational and airline commercial policy and Airport Charge setting
that complies. with international obligations concerning their fairness and
reasonableness and the level of economic return to the Authority. This includes
related matters for complying with Government monitoring and approval
processes involving Airport Charges. The draft use agreement to be entered into
with the air carriers for the use of airport facilities and exclusive accommodation
has been completed and will be issued for consultation with air carriers.
Retail and Catering Services
■ Completed the terminal commercial space planning exercise while at the same
time never compromising the overall service mission of the terminal. This major
airport retail business centre extends over 35,OOOm2 and represents around 1/3 of
total airport revenues: The commercial space, currently being themed and
designed in detail for consideration by prospective retail licensees, can evolve into
a world class retail and catering centre if properly implemented by the Authority
and the retail licensees. The task to date was completed in the face of many
difficulties from Government customs resistance, to terminal architectural design
constraints.
Terminal Building Accommodation
■ Lead and completed terminal redesign to accommodate all carrier and ground
handling service providers and their data base requirements for use of all Airport
systems as needed and to achieve the goal of a cost efficient, quality service
world class airport. The task was achieved against a backdrop of a flawed
systems integration plan and implementation program regarding the level of

Airport systems and related service definition for the efficient operation of the
airport service systems and ground handling services and functions.
Landside Development
■, Participated heavily in, and partially lead, the review of the airport island Master
Plan options for final design of all operational facilities and functions. _
■ Conducted development analyses of hotel, freight forwarding and office complex
proposals.
■ Reviewed compensatory cost analyses for airport island land creation in order to
achieve a minimum payback scenario and to define costs that play a strategic role
in revenue returns from related Airport Charges.
Fixed Apron Aircraft Support Services
An operational policy and design guidance for fixed ground power, pre -conditioned air,
potable water, etc. and their related integration into a total Airport System was
completed.
Completion of the Aerodrome Manual
This cornerstone document which is required in order to achieve an aerodrome license
from government for the new airport. The manual was written for the immediate use by
Kai Tak, who did not have a single, rationalized operational document.
Airside Businesses
Formulation of Board approved policies for the multi -stage competitive license award
process and implementation of the policy to date and was instrumental in achieving the
Board approved "competitive business policy" and unique license award process. If the
process is judiciously administered. and protected from adverse "special interests", it will
be one of the key elements of a cost efficient service goal of the Authority.
Aviation Fuel
Assisted, and as required, lead, 12 Government Departments in issues surrounding the
complex commercial requirements concerning competitive open access, strategic fuel
supply criteria, site selection, and the marine and environment impact studies etc.
Instrumental in achieving Board agreement for the aviation industry's aim of obtaining
"open access" to strategic aviation fuel receiving depots and the fuel hydrant distribution
for into plane refueling.

Cross -field Tunnels and Taxiways
Developed a new scheme and functionally lay out, to eliminate one of the two proposed
cross -field vehicular tunnels. This created both space, that 'vas needed for ground
handling services, and substantial cost savings by constructing only one tunnel at this
time. This realigned tunnel now greatly improves mid -field functional service flexibility
for the "Y" and future "X" concourses (for competitive ground equipment maintenance,
refuse services etc.). while retaining all terminal frontage aircraft stands. It provided an
alternative and more efficient air traffic control tower site and the efficient use of land
along with the ability to safeguard a commuter and regional aircraft passenger terminal
that will maximize the use of existing terminal 1 infrastructure and airfield efficiency
during peak periods. It may also delay the need for the "X" terminal requirement.
Terminal Baggage Handling and Processing.
Assisted Engineering Department with design review and communication with IATA.
This related to the functional capability of the proposed system, operational aspects,
alternative security screening, bag transfer design, system expansion philosophies and
system integration requirements with other Airport Systems and its master data base.
Passenger Terminal Government Accommodation
Successfully rationalized and negotiated with various Government terminal service
provides the relocation of over 5,500m2 of their assigned space that was in the prime
commercial revenue generating areas of the terminal.
Immigration Operational Areas
Convinced a very reluctant Director of Immigration, and in turn his policy Branch and
_ central. government, that their preferred centralized terminal immigration processing
arrangements were functionally inefficient. The views of the Director -were revised and
immigrations is now a major ally of the Authority in all immigration related issues. This
achievement can be measured by the retention of landside and airside retail/catering areas
and the creation of passenger transfer areas that were either nonexistent or under
designed.
Revenue & Operating Costs - Forecasting and Budgeting
A critical review of the professional prepared revenue forecasts was completed, which
resulted in many reservations concerning specific revenue targets set forth therein and
the assumptions used in the forecasts. Ongoing revised forecast, subject to commercial
negotiation of airport support licenses, were produced and passed to Strategic Planning

and Finance. In addition, a computer program was devised to centralize all revenue and
cost assumptions to achieve a "real time" forecast update when any assumption is
reviewed. This is a critical tool for sensitivity analysis and developing substitute revenue
targets.
Transfer Passenger Arrangements
Corrected major terminal design aspects throughout the concourses. The architectural
design and related functional areas being proposed.would not have functioned given the
number of passengers involved and the physical passenger flow characteristics.
Airfield Fire Fighting System
Advised Project's infrastructure group of the potential major capital savings without
abrogating airport safety requirements, of an alternative system.
Potential Commuter Aircraft Terminal
By relocating airport support services to the mid -field area, the opportunity now arises
to develop, now or in the future, a cost-effective transfer to the West of the "Y"
concourse. It is firmly believed that these services (up to 150 pax.) to the PRC will be
a major market driver in the future. This is especially so, with pre -clearance
possibilities, to lesser served airports in China.
Two conceptual safeguarding schemes have been completed which could provide in its
final phase up to 25 aircraft parking positions, handle 3,000 pax. per hour, directly
Linked to the terminal APM and baggage handling systems.
_ Aircraft Apron Stand Road Layout
Corrected a potentially flawed ramp design and operational approach to apron vehicle
circulation routes which if followed would have resulted in serious congestion and in
efficient ramp operations. More importantly this would have resulted in the inability to
meet published flight schedule times which is the cornerstone of airline, and airport,
competitive strategies.
Policy Positions on Support Services
Agreement with the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAO) on the general
approach to the award of all airport licenses on the basis of a fair and non-discriminatory
approach. The approach recognizes that the historic tender process for retail
concessions, etc. is no longer workable or desirable.

Airport Passenger and Related Traffic Forecasts
Achieved an agreement with IATA that long running forecast issues should be set -aside
and replaced by forecast reviews, simulation exercises, information sharing and a
commitment from the Authority to review expansion phasing strategy with new forecasts.
Assisting the Authority with key forecasting scope requirements and the selection and
ultimate management of a major traffic forecasting consultancy concerning landside
traffic and the commercial interests of the Division.
Airport Security Systems
Initiated and chaired the new airport security planning committee and airport membership
of the Government Security Committee. The aim was to procure a cost effective and
security efficient airport system(s) that addresses the level of security threat that Hong
Kong represents. This includes the -cost benefit to risk assessment of security
infrastructure; a most difficult task and extremely costly to the Authority and air carriers
if not carried out in earnest. In this regard prepared a revised security program for the
new airport for submission to Government for their review and consideration in
developing the Hong Kong Airport Security Program for compliance by all air carriers
and users of the Airport.
In addition, continual review of the design architects proposed terminal security screening
systems including identification of major cost saving areas e.g. CCTV and required
system integration to assure efficiency of operation and reduced costs.
Aircraft Terminal Frontal Gate Positions
_ Lead a design effort -to achieve an all 747400 aircraft frontal gate terminal design. Such
a design is a first for an international airport of this size.
Airport Rates Fees and Charges
Developed a policy and charging mechanisms to devise and achieve fair rates, fees and
charges for airport commercial activities and services and that are structured to compete
against any regional Airport if implemented as recommended.
Helicopter & Executive Aviation Services
Completed a draft functional layout for the joint utilization of these two services with the
Government Flying Service Dept. for the apron area, a goal that should be achieved in

order to develop efficient aircraft ramps and reduce costs to both Government and the
Authority.
Integrated Ground Transportation Service Centre
Following a critical review of the terminal design architects ground transportation
proposals in relation to the planned in -terminal heavy rail transportation station (MTRC)
connecting the Airport with the Hong Kong commercial districts, lead the study, with
Engineering, to completely redesign the ground transportation services and related
infrastructure. This involved locating Terminal 2, relocating the MTRC station outside
of, but midway between, both terminals and centralizing all other transport mode
infrastructure in a largely airconditioned environment.
This exercise finally addressed the needs of the airline industry, the.tourism industry,
ground transportation service providers, MTRC (initially a reluctant party), airport users
and now provides the potential to create the gateway image the community expects. This
conceptual scheme is now under detailed design.
Government Standalone Facilities
Completed a review of government land requirements with a view to minimizing the lost
of revenue generating land and land eventually required for external airport services.
Private Treaty Land Grant
■ Drafted a wide ranging internal position paper concerning the impacts of the
proposed land grant terms and conditions on the ability of the Authority to
manage its affairs and -its statutory obligations concerning the provision of air
transportation services for Hong Kong.
■ Prepared a position paper for negotiations with Government concerning:
- land classifications;
- classification development value;
- gross developable space calculations;
- development phasing;
- town planning and development plot ratio issues;
- initial and future land premia; and
- lead the rebuttal of Government's land development proposals.

Prepared a draft user agreement for air carrier use of Airport Facilities ad for the
assignment of terminal accommodations to all carriers. It will shape the overall Airport
Charges and all carrier terminal use policy of the Authority as it relates to international
obligations and future air carrier contract relationships for accommodations to provide
their air transport activities in an efficient and competitive manner.
Mass Transit Railway Corporation
■ Negotiated the commercial agreement for the railway system.
■ Contributing extensively to the design and operational concept and -how to provide
all functional aspects of the airport and downtown requirements for the potential
in -town check -in system.
Airport Signage and Graphics
Defined and located all of the critical primary airport signage and graphics program; an
issue which was in danger of evolving into an operational morass. The program takes
signage and graphics from the MTRC stations; on -board the trains; and from the Lantau
Expressway to the aircraft door.
Waste Management
Carried out a detailed assessment of the waste management and associated rodent control
measures which should be adopted during airport design, construction and operation.
Items addressed and conclusions recommended were:
- Detailed re -assessment .of current waste quantities both generated at Kai Tak and
from surveys of prospective licensees; thereafter projected to the new airport.
- Concluded that the proposed on -island refuse transfer station may probably not
be required, a capital saving of over $80M.
- Resolved, with Government's control agency, the requirements to transship
terminal waste from airside to landside.
- Identified terminal waste collection and transfer areas.
- Identified a minimum level of waste collection and compacting facilities required.
- Proposed measures to control rodent infestation at the various stages of the airport
project.
- Business Plans
Prepared the PAA long term Business Plans for all of the major ground handling
service licenses. This including the strategy for developing cargo, passenger

services, fuel supply, open access, freight forwarding services that will maintain
the competitive position of the new airport is truly implemented.
Ticket Counters
Completely redesign the ticket counters and related service facilities to be provided by
such counters. The redesign is a modular design that provides for the future modification
as service requirements change and without major interference with air carrier
operations. The new design incorporated the air condition for the check -in area and thus
eliminated numerous stand alone air conditioning delivery systems throughout the
passenger movement corridors and staging areas of the departure area of the terminal.

PROMOTION OF WOMEN IN THE WORK PLACE
1959 Appointed a woman as Chief Fiscal Officer of the Dade
County Port Authority which at the time was the highest
management position held by a woman in Dade County
government.
1962 While Comptroller of the Florida DOT, appointed a woman
to the first ever management position. Strange as it may
seem, this appointment at first was not well accepted by
other women in the DOT who were then limited to the
position of secretary.
1968 + As Deputy Director of the Dade County Port Authority
(Aviation Department), appointed a woman as Comptroller,
the highest executive position at that time in Dade
County government.
When becoming Director of MIA, appointed a woman as the
Chief Financial Officer of the Aviation Department.
Employed women out of college in key management intern
positions for placement in the Aviation Department and in
other areas of county government.
Employed numerous women college students to summer intern
positions.
Required the "Big Eight" firm responsible for the multi-
million dollar accounting and management services
contract at MIA to promote a woman to be in complete
charge of all their MIA contract services. During this
period, she developed her talents and broadened her
knowledge and experience with extensive help from me.
She has since become a full partner at her firm and
continues to manage the MIA contract today.
Required that a woman attorney of a major Washington D.C.
law firm be in charge and fully responsible for all MIA
legal work in D.C. which involved close to _a million
dollar in services. This position made it possible for
her to receive speaking engagements and other exposure
concerning the work product she performed for the
Aviation Department and to obtain other new clients.
While Aviation Director at Miami International I
appointed women to the following additional positions:
Supervisor (now manager) of the MIA public parking
1
facilities
Chief of the Architectural Division
Chief of Terminal Operations Contract Services now
responsible for all Terminal Operations
Chief of Passenger Support Services within the
International Terminal custom facility and the
Visitor's Reception Center
Promoted a black woman to head the Personnel and
Administrative Services Division of the Aviation
Department. There never was the slightest instance
of female harassment within the Aviation Department
and I received numerous applications from women
working in Dade County government for transfer to
the Aviation Department. In addition, on numerous
occasions many women in government and in the
private sector thanked me for the road I was paving
for women in the work place.
Selected the first black woman firm to manage and
operate a terminal concession and required that
women be given management responsibility in numerus
key terminal service and concession contracts.
As a member of the Executive Board of the Airport
Operators Council International (AOCI) (serving over 250
international airports), successfully lobbied the
appointment of a woman as Deputy Executive Director and
made possible the employment of women in other
responsible positions within AOCI.
As Chairman elect of AOCI, appointed the first woman to
head a major AOCI Standing Committee.
After retiring from MIA, I was involved in assisting a
woman (that I appointed as comptroller of the Aviation
Department) to be"appointed the Deputy Director of Fort
_ Lauderdale Airport, the highest Airport appointment in
Florida. Prior to retiring, I had reclassified the
Comptroller position to an Assistant Director position
which at the time would have been the only Assistant
Director position in the U.S. held by a woman. I
aggressively assisted career women that moved into the
public sector with professional references and continue
to do so today.

1990 Since starting Judy & Associates, I selected a newly
formed Washington D.C. firm owned by a woman to join me
as a contract associate to be a part of my first contract
to develop the cargo market for the Kansas City Airport.
I did the same for a concession study at Philadelphia
Airport. Neither of these decisions by me were prompted
by a contract requirement of the respective airports.
Recommended successfully and am currently negotiating a
contract on behalf of the Fort Myers Airport with a 50%
woman owned firm to perform an air service marketing
contract that would easily involve compensation in the
range of $200,000 for this firm over the next three
years.
Presently negotiating a contract with a woman associate
to perform commercial development services at the
Freeport Bahamas Port Authority.
Scheduled on June 11, 1992 to receive an award from the
FAA at the National Conference of Disadvantages Business
Enterprises and Women Minorities in Atlanta, Georgia.
This organization was begun at my suggestion and I helped
draft the first bylaws for the proposed national
organization. I am advised that the award I am to
receive is in appreciation for all the contributions I
have made in developing unique programs for women and
minorities to enable their participation in airport
business opportunities that were thereafter used by the
FAA as examples for assisting DBEs throughout the
nation's airports. I assigned a woman executive
assistant to me to assist on a day to day basis the FAA
Southern Region office responsible for DBE and minority
compliance regulations.
Currently assisting and advising gratis a woman owned
firm in seeking architectural service opportunities
throughout the United States.
Assisting a Afro-American owned female minority firm in
Washington D.C. to be 'successful in bidding on airport
concession opportunities. I am providing these services
at fifty percent of my hourly fee when it is _necessary
for me to go to Washington D.C. to assist in preparing a
response to a RFP.
I accept speaking requests at conferences to assist DBEs
in how to grow their businesses at Airports and to
respond to Requests for Proposals from Airports.
Finally, I encouraged by daughter to seek an appointment
to the U.S. Navel Academy during the early years of the
3
new women admission mandate. She received an appointment
on her merit and sacrificed a great deal to help pioneer
the acceptance of women at the Academy which
disgracefully has a long way to go. Because of the
extreme harassment by her male peers and the neglect of
her superiors, she left the Academy after her second
year.
I have not discussed my efforts to promote and keep the
families together of certain Afro-Americans (and other
minorities) who worked for the Department in both labor
and skilled positions when they became involved in drugs.
I personally dealt with each case and permitted no
dismissals without first having made every possible
effort to help them.

Dick Judy Steps Down as Aviation Director;
Frederick Elder Named Interim Director
After 18 years as Dade County
Aviation Director, Richard H.
Judy announced April 28th
that he will be taking early
retirement. Judy will serve as a
special assistant to County
Manager Joaquin Avino working
to develop new international air
service among other special pro-
jects until January when he will
take full retirement, after 30 years
of public service in Florida.
County Manager Avino an-
nounced the creation of a national
search committee for a new
aviation director and appointed
Frederick Elder, Airport Deputy
Director of Governmental Affairs,
as interim director of the Aviation
Department until a permanent
director is chosen.
_Judy, 57, became director -of the
Aviation Department in 1971 and
oversaw booming growth at the
nation's eighth largest passen-
ger airport and the world's
sixth largest international cargo
airport. During his tenure,
passengers more than doubled
from 11.1 million in 1971 to 24.5
million in 1988 and cargo grew
from 289,000 tons to 757,000
over the same period.
With a ' national reputation as a
dynamic and unconventional in-
novator, Judy was recognized as a
legend in the aviation industry for
his aggressive style of airport
management. He shunned then -
Richard H. Judy
traditional . airpot-t financial
operating practices and converted
long term exclusive -use leases to
short term operating leases. He
retained control for the airport of
many commercial activities such
as the airport hotel, restaurants,
duty-free shops and retail stores
opting to run them through
airport management agreements
instead of contracting them out to
concessionaires. Judy was the
first airport director to use tax
exempt commercial paper to
finance airport expansion and was
the first airport operator in
the nation to provide child care
services for airport and air-

F}ederick Elder
Interim Aviation Director
As a result of his management
innovations, quality and variety
improved, levels of service
improved and revenues soared.
Since the airport is totally
self-financing, both in operations
and construction, these revenues
allowed construction projects to
keep pace with cargo and pas-
senger growth, while airline costs
were kept low, encouraging more
airline service to Miami.
"Judy is a total innovator who is
recognized around the world. He's
done a tremendous amount of
good. He will be sorel , ed,"

said Phil Bakes, president of
Eastern Airlines.
Judy first served as comptroller
for the Dade County Port
Authority in 1959, the forerunner
of the Aviation Department and
then spent several years with a
private accounting firm. In 1961
he went to Tallahassee as comp-
troller for the state road
department, returning to the
aviation department as deputy
director in 1967. He was ap-
pointed aviation director in 1971.
"I feel that my greatest ac-
complishment in making Miami
International Airport a top-notch
facility is the staff I have been
able to put together. The team
that runs this airport is what
really makes it tick. I know they
are going to continue the first-
rate job they've been doing,"
Judy said.
The selection committee for a new
aviation director will be chaired
by Armando M. Codina, president
of the Codina Group, Inc. and
chairman -elect of the Greater
Miami Chamber of Commerce.
Other members of the search
committee include: former Coun-
ty Manager Ray Goode, president
of the Babcock Company; Arthur
Hill, president of People National

RICHARD H. JUDY
PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT
SUMMARY OF PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
Richard H. Judy is the former Director of the Dade County Aviation Department,
operator of Miami International Airport and five other county airports.
Mr. Judy guided the Miami international airport aviation system through a
challenging twenty year period of change and passenger, cargo, commercial and net
revenue growth that is continuing today under a new management team. Miami
International Airport during this period ranked among the top ten airports of the
world in terms of total annual passengers served and tons of cargo handled, and for
its ability to generate commercial revenue while maintaining an internationally
recognized low operating cost environment for its air carrier service providers.
Mr. Judy began his career after receiving a Bachelor of Business Administration
degree from the University of Miami in 1953, and has pursued extensive post-
graduate studies in law, taxation and related subjects. During the early part of his
career, he accumulated a vast amount of experience in financial management and
commercial development in the private sector and in various local and state
government positions. In 1967, he became Deputy Director of the Dade County
Port Authority, precursor of the Dade County Aviation Department, and was
appointed Aviation Director in 1971.
Mr. Judy is known throughout the worldwide aviation community, and is highly
respected for his skills as a manager, planner, negotiator, financier, developer of

cost efficient airport commercial projects systems and project management. He is
consulted by airports and related industries in regard to every aspect of terminal,
airside and landside functional design and the development of cost efficient airport
services system and the integration of such system for the efficient use by all users
of the airport as and when needed. This has been clearly confirmed by his dual
interim appointment as Commercial Director and Operations Director of the
Provisional Airport Authority of Hong Kong for fifthteen months for -the most cirtical
design and commercial development period of the new Hong Kong Airport.
He has been recognized in a profile on his business acumen and accomplishments in
Forbes Magazine. -For his development of the Miami International Airport's master
plan and related integrated functional and cost efficient building system, Richard
Judy won the prestigious annual Wright Brothers .Award. He has since received
numerous commendations and awards. Among these are the Bill Pallot Award of
the International Center of Florida for his contributions to international trade and
commerce and the Max Schumacher Memorial Award of the Helicopter Association

Industrial Association of Dade County in 1986, and was honored by the Greater
Miami Chamber of Commerce in September of 1986 "[i]n recognition of his vision,
ingenuity and business acumen in making Miami International Airport the best and
most cost efficient, and competitive in the world."
Richard Judy has distinguished himself through his total commitment to the
development of efficient airport systems and services. He is well known for his
success in transferring control of the use of all airport infrastructure and the rates,
fees and charges related to such infrastructure use from the air carrier tenants and

Achievements At -A -Glance
June 8, 1994
The following lists, is not particular order, the major wor4(produced during the past 19 months
effective October 1992.
Passenger Terminal Building Level Changes & Redesign
This fundamental project achievement evolved out of a series of critical functional
reviews of the then current tenninal functional design including all airport service
systems and their operational and integration requirements. The review played the major
role in resolving the functional service designs, accommodation and operational issues
that the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the tourism industry,
amongst others, found fundamentally unacceptable with the multi -level design and related
ground transportation infrastructure then being proposed by the design architect. An
extensive list of other functional design concerns of IATA have also been successfully
addressed.
The current functional systems design direction is now accepted and supported by all
airport user groups except several that have been modified by the PAA due to costs.
Aircraft Maintenance Services
Competitive tender documents completed.
Cargo Processing Terminal
■ As above.
Aircraft Catering
■ As above.
Aviation Fuel Service System
■ As -above.
Airport Utilities and Services
Lead the Authority's commercial planning and negotiation effort with respect to the.
supply of all utilities and services.
Ramp Handling and Baggage Handling Services
■ Operating position completed vis-a-vis number of operators, scope of services,
etc. and is now -ready for the beginning of the license award process competition.
■ The issue of international obligations regarding competitive service providers have
been, addressed and resolved.

■ The policy for airline self -handling has been developed for air carrier
consultation. This impacts on every aspect of the Airport Support Services
concerning air carrier ground handling activities from passenger check -in to
aircraft push back.
Airline Operations
■ A major, global airline consultation document has been prepared and issued to all
Kai Tak airline users.
■ The consultation process, which will take 9-12 months, will shape all airport
operational aspects for many years including the Airport Charging Schedule,
related cost basis for formulating the Airport Charges and rates of return on
equity and net assets for future development. The conclusions will form the
bedrock for operational and airline commercial policy and Airport Charge setting
that complies with international obligations concerning their fairness and
reasonableness and the level of economic return to the Authority. This includes
related matters for complying with Government monitoring and approval
processes involving Airport Charges. The draft use agreement to be entered into
with the air carriers for the use of airport facilities and exclusive accommodation
has been completed and will be issued for consultation with air carriers.
Retail and Catering Services
■ Completed the terminal commercial space planning exercise while at the same
time never compromising the overall service mission of the terminal. This major
airport retail business centre extends over 35,000m2 and represents around 1/3 of
total airport revenues: The commercial space, currently being themed and
designed in detail for consideration by prospective retail licensees, can evolve into
a world class retail and catering centre if properly implemented by the Authority
and the retail licensees. The task to date was completed in the face of many
difficulties from Government customs resistance, to terminal architectural design
constraints.
Terminal Building Accommodation
■ Lead and completed terminal redesign to accommodate all carrier and ground
handling service providers and their data base requirements for use of all Airport
systems as needed and to achieve the goal of a cost efficient, quality service
world class airport. The task was achieved against a backdrop of a flawed,
systems integration plan and implementation program regarding the level of

Airport systems and related service definition for the efficient operation of the
airport service systems and ground handling services and functions.
Landside Development
■ Participated heavily in, and partially lead, the review of the airport island Master
Plan options for final design of all operational facilities and functions.
■ Conducted development analyses of hotel, freight forwarding and office complex
proposals.
■ Reviewed compensatory cost analyses for airport island land creation in order to
achieve a minimum payback scenario and to define costs that play a strategic role
in revenue returns from related Airport Charges.
Fixed Apron Aircraft Support Services
An operational policy and design guidance for fixed ground power, pre -conditioned air,
potable water, etc. and their related integration into a total Airport System was
completed.
Completion of the Aerodrome Manual
This cornerstone document which is required in order to achieve an aerodrome license
from government for the new airport. The manual was written for the immediate use by
Kai Tak, who did not have a single, rationalized operational document.
Airside Businesses
Formulation of Board approved policies for the multi -stage competitive license award
process and implementation of the policy to date and was instrumental in achieving the
— - Board approved "competitive business policy" and unique license award process. If the
process is judiciously administered. and protected from adverse "special interests", it will
be one of the ke' elements of a cost efficient service goal of the Authority.
Aviation Fuel
Assisted, and as required, lead, 12 Government Departments in issues surrounding the
complex commercial requirements concerning competitive open access, strategic fuel
supply criteria, site selection, and the marine and environment impact studies etc.
Instrumental in achieving Board agreement for the aviation industry's aim of obtaining
"open access" to strategic aviation fuel receiving depots and the fuel hydrant distribution
for into plane refueling.

Cross -field Tunnels and Taxiways
Developed a new scheme and functionally lay out, to eliminate one of the two proposed.
cross -field vehicular tunnels. This created both space, that -was needed for ground
handling services, and substantial cost savings by constructing only one tunnel at this
time. This realigned tunnel now greatly improves mid -field functional service flexibility
for the "Y" and future "X" concourses (for competitive ground equipment maintenance,
refuse services etc.) while retaining all terminal frontage aircraft stands. It provided an
alternative and more efficient air traffic control tower site and the efficient use of land
along with the ability 'to safeguard a commuter and regional aircraft passenger terminal
that will maximize the use of existing terminal 1 infrastructure and airfield efficiency
during peak periods. It may also delay the need for the "X" terminal requirement.
Terminal Baggage Handling and Processing.
Assisted Engineering Department with design review and communication with IATA.
This related to the functional capability of the proposed system, operational aspects,
alternative security screening, bag transfer design, system expansion philosophies and
system integration requirements with other Airport Systems and its master data base.
Passenger Terminal Government Accommodation
Successfully rationalized and negotiated with various Government terminal service
provides the relocation of over 5,500m2 of their assigned space that was in the prime
commercial revenue generating areas of the terminal.
Immix,ration Operational Areas
Convinced a very reluctant Director of Immigration, and in turn his policy Branch and
central government, that their preferred centralized terminal immigration processing
arrangements were functionally inefficient. The views of the Director -were revised and
immigrations is now a major ally of the Authority in all immigration related issues. This
achievement can be measured by the retention of landside and airside retail/catering areas
and the creation of passenger transfer areas that were either non existent or under
designed.
Revenue & Operating Costs - Forecasting and Budgeting
A critical review of the professional prepared revenue forecasts was completed, which
resulted in many reservations concerning specific revenue targets set forth therein and
the assumptions used in the forecasts. Ongoing revised forecast, subject to commercial
negotiation of airport support licenses, were produced and passed to Strategic Planning

and Finance. In addition, a computer program was devised to centralize all revenue and
cost assumptions to achieve a "real time" forecast update when any assumption is'
reviewed. This is a critical tool for sensitivity analysis and developing substitute revenue
targets.
Transfer Passenger Arrangements
Corrected major terminal design aspects throughout the concourses. The architectural
design and related functional areas being proposed would not have functioned given the
number of passengers involved and the physical passenger flow characteristics.
Airfield Fire Fighting System
Advised Project's infrastructure group of the potential major capital savings without
abrogating airport safety requirements, of ar. alternative system.
Potential Commuter Aircraft Terminal
By relocating airport support services to the mid -field area, the opportunity now arises
to develop, now or in the future, a cost-effective transfer to the West of the "Y"
concourse. It is firstly believed that these services (up to 150 pax.) to the PRC will be
a major market -driver in the future. This is especially so, with pre -clearance
possibilities, to lesser served airports in China.
Two conceptual safeguarding schemes have been completed which could provide in its
final phase up to 25. aircraft parking positions, handle 3,000 pax. per hour, directly
Linked to the terminal APM and baggage handling systems.
Aircraft Apron Stand Road Layout
Corrected a potentially flawed ramp design and operational approach to apron vehicle
circulation routes which if followed would have resulted in serious congestion and in
efficient ramp operations. More importantly this would have resulted in the inability to
meet published flight schedule times which is the cornerstone of airline, and airport,
competitive strategies.
Policy Positions on Support Services
Agreement with the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAO) on the general
approach to the award of all airport licenses on the basis of a fair and non-discriminatory
approach. The approach recognizes that the historic tender process for retail,
concessions, etc. is no longer workable or desirable.

Airport Passenger and Related Traffic Forecasts
Achieved an agreement with IATA that long running forecast issues should be set -aside
and replaced by forecast reviews, simulation exercises, information sharing and a
commitment from the Authority to review expansion phasing strategy with new forecasts.
Assisting the Authority with key forecasting scope requirements and the selection and
ultimate management of a major traffic forecasting consultancy concerning landside
traffic and the commercial interests of the Division.
Airport Security ystems
Initiated and chaired the new airport security planning committee and airport membership
of the Government Security Committee. The aim was to procure a cost effective and
security efficient airport system(s) that addresses the level of security threat .that Hong
Kong represents. This includes the cost benefit to risk assessment of security
infrastructure; a most difficult task and extremely costly to the Authority and air carriers
if not carried out inearnest. In this regard prepared a revised security program for the
new airport for submission to Government for their review and consideration in
developing the Hong Kong Airport Security Program for compliance by all air carriers
and users of the Airport.
In addition, continual review of the design architects proposed terminal security screening
systems including identification of major cost saving areas e.g. CCTV and required
system integration to assure efficiency of operation and reduced costs.
Aircraft Terminal Frontal Gate Positions
Lead a design effort to achieve an all 747-400 aircraft frontal gate terminal design. Such
a design is a first for an international airport of this size.
Airport Rates, Fees and Charges
Developed a policy and charging mechanisms to devise and achieve fair rates, fees and
charges for airport commercial activities and services and that are structured to compete
against any regional Airport if implemented as recommended.
Helicopter R Executive Aviation Services
Completed a draft functional layout for the joint utilization of these two services with the
Government Flying Service Dept. for the apron area, a goal that should be achieved in
15

order to develop efficient aircraft ramps and reduce costs to both Government and the
Authority.
Integrated Ground Transportation Service Centre
Following a critical review of the terminal design architects ground transportation
proposals in relation to the planned in -terminal heavy rail transportation station (MTRQ
connecting the Airport with the Hong Kong commercial districts, lead the study, wjth
Engineering, to completely redesign the ground transportation services and related
infrastructure. This involved locating Terminal 2, relocating the MTRC station outside
of, but midway between, both terminals and centralizing all other transport mode
infrastructure in a largely airconditioned environment.
This exercise finally addressed the needs of the airline industry, the tourism industry,
ground transportation service providers, MTRC (initially a reluctant party), airport users
and now provides the potential to create the gateway image the community expects. This
conceptual scheme is now under detailed design.
Government Standalone Facilities
Completed a review of government land requirements with a view to minimizing the lost
of revenue generating land and land eventually required for external airport services.
Private Treaty Land Grant
■ Drafted a wide ranging internal position paper concerning the impacts of the
proposed land grant terms and conditions on the ability of the Authority to
manage its affairs and 'its statutory obligations concerning the provision of air .
transportation services for Hong Kong.
■ Prepared a position paper for negotiations with Government cbncerning:
- land classifications;
- classification development value;
- gross developable space calculations;
- development phasing;
- town planning and development plot ratio issues;
- initial and future land premia; and
- lead the rebuttal of Government's land development proposals.

services, fuel supply, open access, freight forwarding services that will maintain
the competitive position of the new airport is truly implemented.
Ticket Counters
Completely redesign the ticket counters and related service facilities to be provided by
such counters. The redesign is a modular design that provides for the future modification
as service requirements change and without major interference with air carrier
operations. The new design incorporated the air condition for the check -in area and thus
eliminated numerous stand alone air conditioning delivery systems throughout the
passenger movement corridors and staging areas of the departure area of the terminal.

Overview
Prior to becoming a consultant to the Chief Executive Officer of the PAA, Mr. Judy served as Interim
Commercial Director and Operations Director of the PAA. The overall goal of the combined
Commercial/Operations Division is to create a cost efficient, quality service and fair and equal opportunity
to all airport facilities and services to the fullest extent possible. An equally important goal is to optimize
the ability of the Authority to implement airport charges that are not anti -competitive or discriminatory and
to optimize non -aeronautical services and revenues such as retail and surplus land development. In order
to accomplish these goals, it was necessary for Mr. Judy to fully and fairly address the often competing
needs of all airport users, e.g. airlines, passengers, well-wishers, staff, MTRC, licensees, tourism industry,
PAA and government.
Airline Operations
Mr. Judy is involved in airline consultations which will shape all airport - Airline Negotiations
operational aspects at the airport for many years, including the airport
charging schedule, related cost basis for formulating the airport charges, - Rates and Charges
and rates of return for future airport development. The conclusions will Analysis
form the bedrock for negotiating a commercial policy and charges
schedule that complies with international obligations concerning their
fairness, reasonableness, and level of economic return to the Authority.
This includes guidelines to comply with government monitoring and
approval processes involving airport charges. He completed the draft
use agreement to be entered into with the air carriers for their use of
airport facilities and exclusive accommodations. A preliminary review by
the major domestic Hong Kong air carrier, Cathay Pacific, resulted in
acknowledgement that the agreement was fairly crafted and ready for
distribution to all air carriers. In creating such an equitable agreement,
Mr. Judy has successfully avoided the need for protracted negotiations
between the two parties.
Revenue & Operating Costs - Forecasting and Budgeting
Y Mr. Judy completed a critical review of the professionally prepared - Financial Analysis and
revenue forecasts, which resulted in many reservations concerning Forecasting
specific revenue targets set forth therein and the assumptions used in
the forecasts. Therefore, Mr. Judy produced ongoing revised forecasts, - Airline Negotiations
subject to commercial negotiation of airport support licenses, and
submitted them to Strategic Planning and Finance. In addition, Mr. Judy
devised a computer program designed to centralize all revenue and cost
assumptions to achieve a "real time" forecast update when any
assumption is reviewed. This is a critical tool for sensitivity analysis and
the development of substitute revenue targets.

Mr. Judy developed policy and charging mechanisms to fair rates, fees, Rates and Charges
and charges for airport commercial activities and services. The rates are Analysis
structured to be competitive against those of any other regional airport.
Airport User License Agreement
Mr. Judy prepared and negotiated a draft user agreement for air carrier Airport Facility
"q use of airport facilities and for the assignment of terminal Requirements
accommodations to all carriers. The agreement will shape the overall
airport charges and carrier terminal use policy of the Authority as it Airline Negotiations
relates to international obligations and future air carrier contract
relationships for accommodations to provide their air transport activities
in an efficient and competitive manner. Mr. Judy also developed
commercial policy and RFP documents for all major airport support
activities, including retail, fueling, cargo, catering, aircraft maintenance,
and general aviation.
k Airside Businesses
Mr. Judy formulated Board approved policies for the multi -stage Airport Policy
competitive license award process and participated in the implementation Negotiation
of the policy to date. He was instrumental in negotiating the Board
approved "competitive business policy" and unique license award
process. If the process is judiciously administered, and protected from
adverse "special interests," it will be one of the key elements of the cost
g efficient service goal of the Authority.
Landside Development
Mr. Judy reviewed compensatory cost analyses for airport island land Rates and Charges
creation in order to achieve a minimum payback scenario and to define Analysis
costs that play a strategic role in revenue returns from related Airport
Charges.

DIRECTOR, DADE COUNTY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
Overview
Mr. Judy was appointed Director of the Aviation Department in 1971. Responsibilities included the overall
operation, development, financing, business management, budget, and policy of Miami International Airport
and five other airports located in Dade County, Florida. He is internationally recognized for developing
Miami International Airport into one of the world's premier cost efficient and service oriented airports. He
developed and implemented countless new ideas for airport management and service systems to the point
where Miami International Airport was the byword for successful innovation within the induF2ry•

The policies Mr. Judy implemented made Miami International Airport the most cost effective of airports for
airline operations and user services, while his stand on maintaining a competitive market for air
transportation in the community resulted in air fares 9% below the industry average and 23% below those
at comparable hubs. Many of the user systems and services now common within the airport industry were
e76e
developed and implemented by Mr. Judy. The following sections highlight almost two decades of Mr.
�= Judy's leadership and innovation as Director of the Dade County Aviation Department.
5 Business Management
Between 1968 and 1988, operating income increased to $233 million,
operating income per passenger increased from $1.37 to $9.71, and
4`$ revenue from commercial retail operations increased from $4.0 million to
3� $72 million.
Several new programs and strategies were developed and pursued to
achieve these results. First, Miami International Airport became the first
airport to introduce brand name concessionaires to airport terminals and
to use management contracts instead of concession agreements to run
commercial operations. Under a management agreement all revenues
flow to the airport. The company responsible for managing the day to
day commercial operation is paid a fee for the services provided. Such
management agreements give the airport control over the pricing and the
quality of the services. As a result of management contracts, financial
analysts have calculated that net revenues from commercial operations
at Miami International Airport are between 50% and 100% higher than
they would be under conventional concession agreements. (The British
Airports Authority has recently adopted the use of management contracts
for Heathrow Airport.)
Mr. Judy also developed the first use of short term use agreements for
airport facilities which allow the airport unparalleled flexibility in meeting
the needs of changing market conditions. Rents can be adjusted to fair
market values, and airport facilities can be utilized to the maximum extent
by reassigning them in the event of airline bankruptcy or changing
— - operational patterns. Traffic levels following the Eastern bankruptcy of
1989, the Air Florida bankruptcy in 1984 and the Braniff bankruptcy in
1982 returned quickly to the pre -bankruptcy levels largely because Mr.
Judy's short term use agreements enabled the airport to make facilities
available for airlines wishing to replace lost service.
In addition, Mr. Judy developed and implemented the first internal airport
enterprise fund for the development of non -aeronautical facilities and
services that was independent of aeronautical revenues. The 1988
annual cash flow into this fund was $40 million and was projected to
grow to $100 million within 10 years (borrowing power of $500 million).
No other airport has such a fund because non -aeronautical revenues at
most airports are captured under the use agreements.

Financing
Mr. Judy was the first to undertake the task of convincing financial Airport Financing
institutions and bond rating agencies that the size and nature of the local Innovations
air transportation market and the ability to raise revenues without air
carrier approval should be the guarantor of airport revenues needed to
service debt, as opposed to the traditional reliance on long term lease Financial Planning
agreements with airlines. In addition, Mr. Judy developed and
implemented many forms of airport financing now widely used by airports
throughout the country, including:
• Development and implementation of the first special airport
revenue bonds for the construction of an air carrier maintenance
facility (while Comptroller).
• Use of tax free commercial paper as an airport financing source.
• Use by airports of back-up letters of credit with commercial
banks. At the time, this innovation saved 112% per year on the
price of the bonds issued.
• Use of variable rate bonds for airport debt financing purposes.
• Use of a liquidity line of credit providing flexibility on the timing of
bond issuance.
• Use of incremental financing of bond issue to provide capital and
incur debt service obligations only as the funding needs arose.
• Drafting of a citizen referendum item which passed and provided
ad valorem tax backing for an airport revenue bond issue. This
-a backing eliminated the need for bond insurance, without
financially impacting the local taxpayer.
- • Development of a non -tax supported financial program for long
term use in borrowing risk capital (accomplished as Deputy
Director of Dade County Aviation Department).
As a result of these financial firsts and Mr. Judy's overall management
practices at Miami International Airport, the bond rating for airport
revenue bonds climbed from B+ in 1968 to A+ at the time of Mr. Judy's
retirement from the airport. Due to the ability of the airport to provide
new competitive carriers with extensive operating facilities, the airport's
bond rating was neither undermined nor put on "credit watch" despite the
bankruptcy of Eastern Air Lines in 1989, which accounted for 31 percent
of the passenger traffic, Air Florida and Braniff Airlines in the early mid-
1980's, and Pan American, which accounted for 20 percent of airport
traffic. SFOyWI CRAB

Policy
Mr. Judy is an acknowledged leader in the fields of international aviation Aviation Policy
policy, congestion and capacity policy (including the drafting of the
original Passenger Facility Charge legislation that was passed by Con- Passenger Facility
gress), competition policy, airport pricing policy, airport financing policy, Charges
airport funding policy, airport development policy, in addition to airport
environmental policy and narcotics and explosive detection policy.
Operations
During his career as Director, Mr. Judy transformed Miami International Passenger Service
Airport into the hub of Latin America and the Caribbean, a major air Development
service hub for American Airlines, a major destination for European
travelers, and one of the world's leading passenger and cargo airports. a Air Cargo Development
At the time of his retirement as Director, Mr. Judy had succeeded in
making Miami the world's 8th largest passenger airport, 6th largest cargo
airport, 3rd in the world in terms of the number of airlines providing
service, and the 2nd largest U.S. international airport in both passenger
and cargo.
Since he began working for the Dade County Aviation Department in
1967, Mr. Judy has succeeded in increasing the number of passengers
handled from 9.5 million to 25 million, increasing the amount of cargo
handled from 194,000 tons to 750,000 tons (currently 1,000,000 tons),
m. increasing the number of airlines providing service from 37 to over 80,
and expanding the locations served from Miami International from
predominately domestic with only a few international destinations, to over
160 destinations today including most major cities in Europe, all major
cities in the Caribbean and Latin America, and several cities in the
Middle East.
Development
Mr. Judy was responsible for the implementation of over $4 billion Airport Development
(money of the day) of self -financed capital construction and over $1
billion worth of conceptional space master planning at Miami International 0 Capital Planning
Airport. Since 1968, under Mr. Judy's direction, the number of aircraft
gates was increased form 74 to 110 (most of the 74 were, replaced with Facilities Planning
new gates) and the terminal space was increased from 0.6 million square
feet to 2.8 million square feet.
In the course of the physical development of Miami International Airport
under his direction, many innovations were successfully implemented.
The world's largest on -airport cargo area was developed, including 2
million square feet of cargo facilities. Miami's ancillary aviation facilities
were enhanced, including the development of the world's largest Airbus
Industries crew training center, and regional headquarters for Rolls Royce
and Cleveland Pneumatics. In addition, under Mr. Judy's direction, Miami ;
International Airport became the first airport to: r`

• design and use displaced runway thresholds for noise abatement
purposes.
• design and use high speed exit taxiways now used throughout
the world and recognized by the Federal Aviation Administration
as a tool to increase airfield capacity.
• design and use dual capability International/Domestic gates
which allow increased facility utilization, increased effective airport
capacity, shorter international to domestic or vice versa aircraft
turnaround, and significant airline operating cost savings.
• implement an airport wide database to integrate all service
systems for cross utilization by all airport users as needed.
• use in -transit passenger facilities in the U.S.
• use Transit Without Visa (TWOV) facilities.
• create dedicated centralized commuter aircraft facilities.
• cogenerate electricity using airport trash from international
aircraft.
Yd develop an integrated electronic cargo service and customs
clearance system for use by all cargo consignees and consignors
to track cargo from the supplier to the receiving consignor on a
real time basis.
In addition, Mr. Judy was instrumental in establishing the first successful
large scale general purpose free trade zone.
Budget
— - During his career as Director, the revenues generated by Miami
International Airport and the other five airports in Dade County grew from
$13 million in 1968 to $250 million in 1990. Expenses incurred in the
w operation of Miami International Airport and the five other airports in Dade
County grew from $4.3 million in 1968 to $144 million in 1990.

COMPTROLLER, DADE COUNTY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
Mr. Judy first joined the Dade County Aviation Department (formerly
Dade County Port Authority) in 1960 as Comptroller. His first major
responsibility was the extensive reorganization of the financial policy and
concession development program of the Authority. In accomplishing this
task, he developed a short-term financing program for the construction
of a $17,000,000 (1960 dollars) airport improvements project including
the first major concession mall and hotel in any terminal. This concept
has been copied at major airports throughout the world, and was
financed through a syndicate of banks throughout the State of Florida
utilizing concession revenues as security; the first such syndicate of its
kind. The success of Mr. Judy's program made it possible for the
Authority to complete its initial capital improvement program one year in
advance of schedule. The early completion also meant that the new
terminal rental and concession revenues totaling $1,500,000 (1957) would
also be received one year in advance of schedule.
Following completion of the above temporary financial program, Mr Judy
accomplished the following projects:
zThe renegotiation of the airport use agreements with major -
airlines. The agreements provided a date certain for the removal -
of airline control over the provision of new airport facilities and the
ability of the airport to independently adjust landing fees and
other rates, fees and charges.

RICHARD H. JUDY
PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT
SUMMARY OF PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
Richard H. Judy is the former Director of the Dade County Aviation Department,
operator of Miami International Airport and five other county airports.
�t
Mr. Judy guided the Miami international airport aviation system through a
�6P
challenging twenty year period of change and passenger, cargo, commercial and
net revenue growth that is continuing today under a new management team.
Miami International Airport during this period ranked among the top ten airports
of the world in terms of total annual passengers served and tons of cargo
handled, and for its ability to generate commercial revenue while maintaining an
p� internationally recognized low operating cost environment for its air carrier
service providers.
Mr. Judy began his career after receiving a Bachelor of Business Administration
degree from the University of Miami in 1953, and has pursued extensive post-
graduate studies in law, taxation and related subjects. During the early part of
— - his career, he accumulated a vast amount of experience in financial
management and commercial development in the private sector and in various
local and state government positions. In 1967, he became Deputy Director of
the Dade County Port Authority, precursor of the Dade County Aviation i
Department, and was appointed Aviation Director in 1971.
Mr. Judy is known throughout the worldwide aviation community, and is highly p U
respected for his skills as a manager, planner, negotiator, financier, developer of O
W ...P
cost efficient airport commercial projects systems and project management. He
At
is consulted by airports and related industries in regard to every aspect of
terminal, airside and landside functional design and the development of cost
efficient airport services system and the integration of such system for the
efficient use by all users of the airport as and when needed. This has been
clearly confirmed by his dual interim appointment as Commercial Director and
Operations Director of the Provisional Airport Authority of Hong Kong for
fifthteen months for the most cirtical design and commercial development period
' of the new Hong Kong Airport.
He has been recognized in a profile on his business acumen and
accomplishments in Forbes Magazine. For his development of the Miami
International Airport's master plan and related integrated functional and cost
efficient building system, Richard Judy won the prestigious annual Wright
Brothers Award. He has since received numerous commendations and awards.
Among these are the Bill Pallot Award of the International Center of Florida for
his contributions to international trade and commerce and the Max Schumacher
Memorial Award of the Helicopter Association International for his contributions
to the development of a regional helicopter infrastructure. In addition, he was
chosen Public Official of the Year by the Industrial Association of Dade County
in 1986, and was honored by the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce in
September of 1986 "[i)n recognition of his vision, ingenuity and business
-w
acumen in making Miami International Airport the best and most cost efficient,
and competitive in the world."

,
development of efficient airport systems and services. He is well known for his
success in transferring control of the use of all airport infrastructure and the
rates, fees and charges related to such infrastructure use from the air carrier
tenants and third party service providers back to airport management in order to
maximize the airport's ability to control airport costs and to provide air carriers
with operating facilities when needed and at competitive user charges, thereby
providing a vibrant and competitive air service market place for the benefit of
the airport's passenger and cargo users and the gross product of the region the
airpot serves.

Public servant Richard Judy runs Miami
International Airport as if he owns it. Odd-
ly for an airport, this one makes money.
„we enterprised it”
By Jan Part
Pn EOPLE AROUND Mlami say that
public -servant Richard Judy
s Miami International Airport
as if he owns it. They all don't mean it
ac a cmmnliment. but that's how Judy
takes it, and for good reason. Wherev-
er Judy strikes, airport profits seem to
double —in passenger lounges, restau-
rants, the airport hotel, even airport
cargo services. -
"My dream is to privatize the air-
port," says Judy, whose official title
since 1971 has been director of the
Dade County Aviation Department,
which runs the airport. "But we
couldn't privatize it, so we enter -
prised it. There's tremendous revenue
potential here if you meet consumer
demand. We are, and they're willing
to pay for it."
Take airport lounges. Back in the
old days, five years ago, when airlines
operated all passenger lounges, the
airport's take from lounges was pure-
ly in rent, $6 to $7 a square foot. "It
didn't even amount to revenue for
us," says Judy. But as leases began
expiring three years ago, Judy began
cutting deals with the airlines, con-
solidating separate lounges into larger
spaces used by several carriers at a
time. With airlines now paying for
loun a services on a per -passenger ba-
sis,,Miami International expects gross
r enues from lounge space to reach
$2 million this year and profits on
lounges to hit $1.2 million a year.
Miami airport's 25 restaurants and
bars have also come in for Judy's en-
terprising. In 1984, as restaurant con-
cessions began coming up for renew-
al, Judy refused to renew. He is rip-
ping them up and remodeling them as
fast as he can, converting them into
298

61 FORBES, NOVEMBER 16, 1987
pleasant, mall -like food c s. Profit
from nine new or redone taurants
has surged; some former "dead space"
is now producing good returns for the
first time. Example: In an area that
used to house only seating, Judy in-
stalled a high -margin seafood bar that
paid back its $700,000 startup cost in
seven months.
"We're making the airport some-
thing other than just a sterile environ-
ment where everything is shoved into
the comers," Judy says. "There are
many more things to come." Last year
each passenger spent about $7, on av-
erage. Judy says he wants to boost that
figure to about $20 before he is done.
To an extent, Judy's success can be
ascribed to good timing. As Mi
has grown rapidly, passenger
and freight volumes handled by
Miami International Airport
have surged. Although rankings
vary in these deregulated times,
Miami figures it's tenth nation-
ally in flight originations. It
handles 23-5 million passengers
and some 614,000 tons. of cargo
per year. In 1971, when Judy
took over, the passenger and
cargo figures were J0.9 million
and 350,000 tons, respectively;
the real improvement . in reve-
nues began in 1979, when Judy
began to "enterprise" the air-
port after years of thought and
study.
Credit Judy for maximizing
his advantages. He has built
gross operating revenues at Mi-
ami International to $150 mil-
lion last year from $92 million
in 1982. Profits —these are de-
fined as current revenues less
operating costs, • not including
depreciation —grew to $60 mil-
lion last year, from $46.9 mil-
lion in 1982. '
Judy, 56, is in the vanguard of
a new breed of airport manager.
Ten years ago most airport man-
agers were likely to be former
World War 11 pilots —fine aviators, but
not often great managers or entrepre-
neurs. But . airports, almost despite
themselves, have become large com-
mercial centers, with captive custom-
ers —not just passengers, but the air-
lines as well. Judy's skill has been
tapping that customer base.
A Pennsylvania coal miner's son,
Judy earned a bachelor's degree in
business administration from the
University of Miami and did postgrad-
uate work in law and taxation, He
went into public service —on ally
as comptroller for the Dade ounty
Port Authority. He has been in the
public sector ever since, with the ex-
302 n�wrw! v1\[7. t,-
ception of a brief stint with tl
nance department of a shipbuiirg
company. Thus he's largely self-
taught as a restaurateur, hotelier and
cargo handler and has no precon-
ceived notions of what an airport
ought to be.
Why don't more big airport manag-
ers follow in Judy's footsteps? One
reason is that Judy enjoys more inde-
pendence than do most airport man-
agers. At New York's John F. Kennedy
Airport, for instance, different au-
thorities run various aspects of the
airport, such as the fueling system or
cargo handling. At Miami, by con-
trast, Judy has complete authority.
"I'm like the head of a conglomer-
airport with boundless energy, stop-
ping only to light a cigarette. In es-
sence he is equal parts planner, nego-
tiator, financier, administrator and
even designer for the 3,200-acre air-
port and its 130,000 square feet of
retail and restaurant space.
He is not short on self-confidence.
Says Judy, who makes $100,000 a
year: "I'll challenge any $400,000
chief executive to a management duel
any day."
Judy's enterprising of the airport be-
gan in 1979.On behalf of Miami Inter-
national he bought the airport hotel
for $4.7 million from International
Airport Hotel Systems. Judy wanted
the hotel because he thought it should
be expanded and upgraded, but the
owner didn't have the money. Judy
bought it and refurbished it into a
first-class hotel; today an atrium and
restaurant are under construction.
Despite $15 million in remodeling
costs, profits from the 270 rooms have
doubled, he says, to a likely $4.5 mil-
lion this year.
About a year ago Judy introduced
air cargo services for smaller carriers.
He predicts that in fiscal 1988 (ending
next Sept. 30) his small carriers'
freight operation will handle 120 mil-
lion pounds of cargo, about 10% of all
Miami International cargo, and earn
$3.5 million. Even so, the small car-
s' cargo -handling costs will be re-
duced by 50%.
Judy's aggressive style, dicta-
torial manner and outspoken
opinions have ruffled feathers
around southern Florida, espe-
cially the feathers of conces-
sionaires that Judy has cut out.
Not a few people worry about
his autonomy and the specula-
tive nature of some of his uses
of public money.
But Judy has results on his
side. Gross revenues from Mi-
ami International's terminal
concessions—$64 million in
1986—made up nearly half of
the airport's gross operating rev-
enues (the other half comes
mainly from landing fees, rent,
parking and taxi fees). No other
major U.S. airport even comes
close. New York's JFK, for ex-
ample, gets $21 million in gross
revenues from concessions.
Miami's consumer revenues
help Judy keep the airport's
landing fees and airline rents
proportionately lower than
those of most major airports.
Judy quit playing golf be-
cause he found he played on
Wednesdays, by lifelong habit a
workday. "I'm suspicious of
any executive who plays golf," he
says. Now he spends his time work-
ing. He works 12-hour days and
comes into the office several hours
on both weekend days.
"You know why I do that?" de-
mands Judy. "Because if you're here
during the peak times, you can see
what your airport will be like when
it's running at peak 365 days a year."
What with passenger air traffic
through Miami expected to increase
4.4% annually through 1990, then by
3.2% annually until the end of the
century, Judy knows he'll have no end
of opportunities for enterprise in the
years ahead. ■

2. SECONDMENT FROM JUDY & ASSOCIATES TO INTERIM DIRECTOR OF
OPERATIONS AND INTERIM DIRECTOR OF COMMERCIAL DIVISION OF THE
PROVISIONAL AIRPORT AUTHORITY OF HONG KONG
3. DIRECTOR, DADE COUNTY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
Appointed Director of the Aviation Department in 1971. Responsibilities
included the overall operation, development, financing, business
management, budget, and policy of Miami International Airport and five other
airports located in Dade County, Florida.
He was responsible for developing Miami International Airport into one of the
world's premier cost efficient and service oriented competitive airports. He
developed and implemented countless new ideas for airport management and
service systems to the point where Miami International Airport was the
byword for successful innovation within the industry.
Over his two decades of leadership he became widely respected throughout
the aviation community for his skills as a planner, negotiator, financier, and
administrator. The policies Mr. Judy implemented made Miami International
Airport the most cost effective of airports for airline operations and user
services while his stand on maintaining a competitive market for air
transportation in the community resulted in air fares 9% below the industry
average and 23% 'below those at comparable hubs. Many of the user
systems and services now common within the airport industry were
developed and implemented by him.
He is consulted by airports and related industries in regard to every aspect of
terminal, airside and landside services facilitation including commercial
development.
Highlights of almost two decades of leadership as Director include:
3.1 OPERATIONS
During his career as Director, Miami International Airport became the
hub -of Latin America and the Caribbean and a major air service hub
for American Airlines; diversified into a major destination for European
travelers, and became one of.the world's leading passenger and cargo
airports. Activities at Miami International Airport account for 20% of
the Gross Product of Dade County, directly providing 25,000 jobs.
At his time of retirement as Director, Miami was the world's 8th
largest passenger airport, 6th largest cargo airport and was ranked
3rd in the world in terms of the number of airlines providing service.
Miami become the 2nd largest U.S. international airport in both
passenger and cargo.

Since 1968 the number of passengers handled increased from 9.5
million to 25 million, the amount of cargo handled increased from
194,000 tons to 750,000 tons (currently 1,000,000 tons), the
number of airlines providing service increased from 37 to over 80.
IV From 1968 to his retirement, the locations served from Miami
International grew from being predominately domestic with only a few
international destinations, all in Latin America, to over 160
destinations today including most major cities in Europe, all major
cities in the Caribbean and Latin America, and several cities in the
Middle East.
3.2 DEVELOPMENT
During his directorship, Miami International Airport developed from a
1950's vintage facility designed for piston aircraft into a state of the
art terminal and air field. .
. Over $4 billion (money of the . day) of self financed capital
construction has taken place and over $1 billion worth of
conceptional space master planning was completed to develop Miami
International Airport to its maximum possible capacity during the
1990 decade. Since 1968, the number of aircraft gates increased
form 74 to 110 (most of the 74 were replaced with new gates) and
the terminal space increased from 0.6 million square feet to 2.8
million square feet.
In the course of the physical development of Miami International
Airport under his direction the following innovations were successfully
implemented:
• First design and use of displaced runway thresholds for noise
abatement purposes.
• First design and use of- high speed exit taxiways now used
throughout the world and recognized by the Federal Aviation
Administration as a tool to increase airfield capacity.
• First design and use of dual capability International/Domestic
gates which- allow increased facility utilization, increased
effective airport capacity, shorter- international to domestic or
vice versa . aircraft turnaround and significant airline operating
cost savings.
• First airport to implement an airport wide database to integrate
all service systems for cross utilization by all airport users as
needed.

Functional design and first use of the second generation
Westinghouse people mover cars now used at Gatwick Airport,
Orlando and other airports throughout the world.
• First U.S. In -transit passenger facilities.
• First Transit Without Visa (TWOV) facilities.
• First airport operated first class Club Lounge facilities.
• First dedicated centralized commuter aircraft facilities.
• First to cogenerate electricity using airport trash from
international aircraft.
The development of ancillary aviation- facilities including the
world's largest Airbus Industries crew training center, and
regional headquarters for Rolls Royce and Cleveland Pneumatics.
• The development of the world's largest on -airport cargo area
including 2 million square feet of cargo facilities.
• The first on -airport airport operated child care center.
• The first on -airport satellite learning center providing education
through the first grade.
• Instrumental in establishing the first successful large scale
general purpose free trade zone.
• First airport to develop an integrated electronic cargo service and
customs clearance system for use of all cargo consignees and
consignors to track cargo from the supplier to the receiving
consignor on a real time basis.
3.3 FINANCING
Was first to undertake the task of convincing the financial institutions
and bond rating agencies that the size and nature of the local air
AM
transportation market and the ability to raise revenues without air
carrier approval was the guarantor of airport revenues needed to
service debt as opposed to the traditional reliance on long term lease
agreements with airlines. Developed and implemented many forms of
financing now widely used. by airports throughout the country.
Aw
• _ Developed and implemented the first special airport revenue bonds
for the construction of an air carrier maintenance facility jwhile
Comptroller). �
c j?W A
IMF

��� CFA.-
First airport to use tax free commercial paper.
First airport to use back-up letters of credit with commercial
banks. At the time this innovation saved 1/2% per year on the
price of the bonds issued.
• First airport to float variable rate bonds.
• First airport to use a liquidity line of credit providing flexibility on
the timing of bond issuance.
• First airport to use incremental financing of bond issue to provide
capital and incur debt service obligations only as the funding
needs arose.
• Drafted citizen referendum item which passed and provided ad
valorem tax backing for airport_ revenue bond issue. This backing
eliminated the need.for bond insurance, without financial impact
on the local taxpayer.
As a result of these financial firsts and the overall management
practices at Miami International Airport, the bond rating for airport
revenue bonds climbed from B+ in 1968 to A+ at the time of Mr.
Judy's retirement from the airport. ' The bond rating was not
undermined . nor the rating put on "credit watch" despite the
bankruptcy of Eastern Air Lines in 1989 (accounting for 31 % of the
passenger traffic), Air Florida and Braniff Airlines in the early mid
Af 1980's and Pan American due to the ability of the airport to provide
immediately new competitive carriers with extensive operating
facilities (gates) such as those provided to American Airlines to begin
a first phase twice daily departure hub.
3.4 BUSINESS MANAGEMENT
Since 1968, operating -income increased to $233 million in 1988.
Operating income per passenger increased from $1.37 to $9.71.
Revenue from commercial retail operations increased from $4.0
million in 1968 to $72 million in 1988.
The new programs and strategies that were developed and pursued to
achieve these results include:
• Management Contracts. Miami International Airport became the
first airport to use management contracts instead of concession
agreements to run commercial operations. Under a management
agreement all revenues flow to the airport. The company
responsible for managing the day to day commercial operation is
paid a fee for the services provided. Such management
SEOPWXXX
agreements give the airport control over the pricing and the quality
of the services. As a result of management contracts, financial
analysts have calculated that net revenues from commercial
operations at Miami International Airport are between 50% and
100% higher than they would be under conventional concession
agreements. The 256 room airport hotel operated by the airport
using a management contract returns greater net revenue to the
airport than a concession agreement hotel with 1,700 rooms.
Management contracts have been applied to .the airport hotel,
Duty Free shops, Newsstands, all restaurants, gift shops, first
class club lounges, cargo handling facilities and services, parking
garages, janitorial and porter services, bag check room service,
child care center and the satellite learning center.
• Short term use agreements. Developed the first use of short term
use agreements "for airport .facilities which allow the airport
unparalleled flexibility in meeting the needs of, changing market
conditions. Rents can be adjusted to fair market values, and
airport facilities can be utilized to the maximum extent by
reassigning them in the event of airline bankruptcy or changing
operational patterns. Traffic levels following the Eastern
bankruptcy of 1989, the Air Florida bankruptcy in 1984 and the
Braniff bankruptcy in 1982 returned quickly to the pre -bankruptcy
levels largely because short term use agreements at Miami
International airport have enabled the airport to make available
facilities for airlines wishing to replace lost service. This flexibility
has resulted in the maintenance of the Airport's A+ Bond Rating
the highest available rating being assigned to airports by the rating
agencies such as Moodys.
• Developed and implemented the first independent internal airport
enterprise fund for the development of non aeronautical facilities
and services independent of aeronautical revenues. The 1988
annual cash flow into this fund was $40 million and it was
projected to grow -to $100 million within 10 years (borrowing
-power of $500 million). No other airport has such a fund because
the revenue sources are controlled by the air carrier users under
their airport use agreements.
• Developed and implemented Techniport, and positioned it to
become an - export trading company aimed at developing
international trade within the community.
m Developed and implemented numerous minority programs which
have since become the model for use by Dade County's HUD, and
the Public Health Trust. The FAA uses Miami as the example of a
. successful minority program. The cornerstone of the minority
programs at Miami International Airport was a Miscellaneous

Construction and Design Contract which provided extensive
opportunities for minority contractors to participate in millions of
dollars of airport construction opportunities.
' 3.5 BUDGET
During his career as Director, the revenues generated by Miami.
International Airport and the other five airports in Dade County grew
from $13 million in 1968 to $250 million in 1990. Expenses incurred
in the operation of Miami International Airport and the five other
airports in Dade County grew from $4.3 million in 1968 to $144
million in 1990.
3.6 POLICY
Fought the banning of Stage 1 aircraft operations in the United
States, pending the hush kit installation, and was successful in
overcoming the opposition of all major U.S. airlines, all aircraft
manufacturers, all major U.S. airports, and the federal government
while forging a cooperative alliance of local interests to protect the
international traffic base and its economic benefits.
Wrote and was instrumental in the enactment of the Air Carrier
Smuggling Prevention Program in the 1988 Drug Bill, overcoming the
opposition of the federal government.
Acknowledged leader in the fields of international aviation policy,
congestion and capacity policy (including the drafting of the original
Passenger Facility Charge legislation that was passed by -Congress),
competition policy, airport pricing policy, airport financing policy,
airport funding policy, airport development policy, in addition to
airport environmental policy and narcotics and explosive detection
policy..
_
Ack-nowledged leader in shaping the aviation related policies of the
Federal Inspection Services. Many innovative programs have been
developed at Miami International Airport for the inspection of
international arriving passengers and cargo. The success of these
programs has given Miami International Airport the best passenger
clearance times of any U.S. airport. The recently released U.S.
Customs master plan for passenger processing in the 1990's is to a
large extent based upon the practices implemented at Miami during
the 1980's.

10 4. DEPUTY DIRECTOR, DADE COUNTY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
C

Moved into the position of Deputy Director at the request of the Director and
civic, business, and aviation leaders within the community.
Primary responsibility was the development of a new Airport within the .
system of airports in South Florida to serve as a major training airport with
the potential to develop into a regional commercial airport to the
Southeastern United States. Progress during the project included execution
of inter -governmental agreements as to the site location, actual site location,
community acceptance of 40 square mile site, concept financing without
taxes, aviation industry acceptance and participation, site acquisition, first
facilities under construction, environmental study underway, master facility
plan underway, high speed (170 mph) air cushion bus demonstration project
study underway, 1,000 food wide ground transportation corridor to the new
airport site. (The development of the site as a commercial airport was halted
by agreement with the U.S. government- pending location of a new site and
replacement by the U.S.)
Another major responsibility was the development of a non -tax supported
financial program for the long term use in borrowing risk capital.
5. COMPTROLLER, DADE COUNTY AVIATION DEPARTMENT
First joined the Dade County Aviation Department (formerly Dade County
Port Authority) in 1960 as Comptroller. First major responsibility was the
extensive reorganization of the financial policy and concession development
program of the Authority.
First accomplishment was the development of a short-term financing
program for the construction of a $17,000,000 (1960 dollars) airport
improvements project including the first major concession mall and hotel in
any terminal. This concept has been copied at major airports throughout the
world. This was financed through a syndicate of banks throughout the State
of Florida utilizing concession. revenues as security; the first such syndicate
_ of its kind. The success of this program made it possible for the Authority to
complete its initial capital improvement program one year in advance of
schedule. The early completion also meant that the new terminal .rental and
concession revenues. totaling $1,500,000 (1957) would also be received one
year in advance of schedule.
After completion of the above temporary financial program, accomplished
the following projects:
• The renegotiation of the airport use agreements with major airlines. The
agreements provided a date certain for the removal of airline control over
the provision of new airport facilities and the ability of the airport to
independently adjust landing fees and other rates, fees and charges.
S tiPv�lI Cis.
a�.
• The settlement of the first major domestic airline fees and charges
discrimination suit.
• Installation of a cost system integrated with all other related airport
systems database to establish a rate base for all the fee and rental
schedules. This cost system received special attention from the local
members of the National Association of Accountants. The cost system
was to be used as a basis for the settlement of the foreign airline rate
case and was to be used in the renegotiation of the then current landing
fee schedule which expired in 1966 and the cost/revenue control
approach to managing the budgetary and pricing of services is
extensively used today by most airports.
• Last major financial accomplishment as Comptroller for the Authority was
the sale of a $20,000,000 special revenue bond issue for airline base
facilities. This financial and commercial arrangement between airlines
and airports has been successfully used by most airports throughout the
U.S.
G. TRANSPORTATION
COMPTROLLER, STATE OF FLORIDA ROAD DEPARTMENT
Joined the State Road Department in 1962 as Comptroller with the primary
responsibility of reorganizing the financial operation of the Department.
Included among the many financial improvements during his term of employment
are the following:
• Drafted and led the passage of a state law and constitutional amendment that
fairly distributed the secondary gas taxes to the large urban areas of the State,
was cited for his outstanding work in developing new accounting and auditing
systems that expedited financing of major federal and state highway systems.
• The financing for the extension of the Florida Turnpike in Dade County and the
development of most of the community's existing expressway system.
• The development and implementation of a federal -aid contracting and collection
system known as the 'Current Billing System' which resulted in the expedition
of the federal -aid construction program of Florida by some $25,000,000 and
over 750,000 in the total U.S.(1990 dollars - 15 billion). The 'Current Billing
System' eliminated the need for Dade County to sell an approved $40,000,000
of bonds to advance finance a portion of the interstate system in Dade County.
Among many other substantial savings, this system made possible the direct
saving of approximately $15,000,000 in interest payments from Dade County's
ad valorem taxes.

• The design of a master credit card system for the control of motor vehicle fuel
purchases for the State Road Department and all other state agencies.
• The implementation of new document flow systems which have made possible
substantial savings by reducing costly "red tape."
• The use of new audit programs and reporting systems to management to aid in
the efficient expenditure of state tax resources.
The development of financial funding concepts for construction of the first non -
toll and non -interstate expressway system constructed in Florida.
• The implementation of .a new investment program for department funds being
temporarily held for road construction disbursement which has resulted in
substantial excess interest earnings since 1962.
• The development of a financial partnership concept between the large urban
counties and the Florida State Road Department to expedite the advance design
of urban roads and expressways in counties of 50,000 population or more.

(PROVIDED UPON REQUEST)
Beyond the realm of airport management, Richard H. Judy has been at the forefront
of developing and implementing industry wide practices and policies that have
shaped the development of the air transportation industry. He is well known for the
positions he has developed on such issues as airport environmental impacts, airline
competition policy, airport capacity and congestion policy, international aviation
policy, airport development policy, federal inspection policy, narcotics interdiction
policy, airport charges policy, and airport funding policy. For the. past ten years he
has become known as a prominent and even handed spokesman for the public
interest in these and other matters.
Many of Richard Judy's accomplishments are the result of his abilities as a
negotiator. His shrewd sense of negotiating has led him to be requested on
numerous occasions to represent his community, his peers, his industry, and his
country on almost every aspect of aviation.
Mr Judy is personally responsible for these developments. His innovative
management talents have made many of these developments successful where
others have not even attempted. He has the reputation of schematically designing
all facilities himself before turning them over to architects for final design
execution. He has the reputation for finding new and cost effective ways of testing
designs before going into the architectural and construction stages. For example,
new taxiway and lighting configurations, at Mr. Judy's suggestion, were tested by
professional pilots by reprogramming aircraft simulators with each configuration,
safeguarding millions from having to be spent in the event the "drawing board"
configurations proved to be impractical. He has the reputation for innovation. He
constructed a tunnel under a runway where the water table is a mere three feet
below ground level. He shifted an entire runway 150' laterally to make room for a
needed parallel taxiway and the extension of several concourses to provide
increased capacity. Industry planners had failed to find a solution to the problem.
He has been sought by the National Academy of Sciences to help develop the
specifications for Computer Aided Design for buildings. He has received numerous
design and construction awards for facilities that vary in purpose from a heliport to
a duty free shop.
Mr. Judy has developed the commercial operations and airport integrated building
and use systems and related user services of Miami International Airport to the
point where many consider the airport at the most successful and advanced airport
in the world. This achievement has been accomplished by innovative thinking,
prudent business management and entrepreneurial skill not usually associated with
public enterprise.

The following lists, is not particular order, the major word produced during the past 19 months
effective October 1992.
Passenger Terminal Building Level Changes & Redesign
This fundamental project achievement evolved out of a series of critical functional
reviews of the then current terminal functional design including all airport service
systems and their operational and integration requirements. The review played the major
AW role in resolving the functional service designs, accommodation and operational issues
that the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the tourism industry,
amongst others, found fundamentally unacceptable with the multi -level design and related
ground transportation infrastructure then being proposed by the design architect. An
extensive list of other functional design concerns of IATA have also been successfully
addressed.
The current functional systems design direction is now accepted and supported by all
airport user groups except several that have been modified by the PAA due to costs.
Aircraft Maintenance Services

■ The policy for airline self -handling has been developed for air. carrier
consultation. This impacts on every aspect of the Airport Support Services
concerning air carrier ground handling activities from passenger check -in to
aircraft push back.
Airline Operations
■ A major, global airline consultation document has been prepared and issued to Al
Kai Tak airline users.
■ The consultation process, which will take 9-12 months, will shape all airport
operational aspects for many years including the Airport Charging Schedule,
related cost basis for formulating the Airport Charges and rates of return on
equity and net assets for future development. The conclusions will form the
bedrock for operational and airline commercial policy and Airport Charge setting
that complies with international obligations concerning their fairness and
reasonableness and the level of economic retum to the Authority. This includes
related matters for complying with Government monitoring and approval
processes involving Airport Charges. The draft use agreement to be entered into
with the air carriers for the use of airport facilities and exclusive accommodation
has been completed and will be issued for consultation with air carriers.
Retail and Catering Services
■ Completed the terminal commercial space planning exercise while at the same
time never compromising the overall service mission of the terminal. This major
airport retail business centre extends over 35,000m2 and represents around 1/3 of
total airport revenues: The, commercial space, currently being themed and
designed in detail for consideration by.prospective retail licensees, can evolve into
a world class retail and catering centre if properly implemented by the Authority
and the retail licensees. The task to date was completed in the face of many
difficulties from Government customs resistance, to terminal architectural design
constraints.
Terminal Building Accommodation
■ Lead and completed terminal redesign to accommodate all carrier and ground
handling service providers and their data base requirements for use of all Airport
systems as needed and to achieve the goal of a cost efficient, quality service
world class airport. The task was achieved against a backdrop of a flawed
systems integration plan and implementation program regarding the level of

Airport systems and related service definition for the efficient operation of the
airport service systems and ground handling services and functions.
M
Landside Development
■ Participated heavily in, and partially lead, the review of the airport island Master
Plan options for final design of all operational facilities and functions.
■ Conducted development analyses of hotel, freight forwarding and office complex
proposals.
■ Reviewed compensatory cost analyses for airport island land creation in order to
achieve a minimum payback scenario and to define costs that play a strategic role
' in revenue returns from related Airport Charges.
Fixed Apron Aircraft Support Services
An operational policy and design guidance for fixed ground power, pre -conditioned air,
potable water, etc. and their related integration into a total Airport System was
completed.
Completion of the Aerodrome Manual
This cornerstone document which is required in order to achieve an aerodrome license
from government for the new airport. The manual was written for the immediate use by
Kai Tak, who did not have a single, rationalized operational document.
Airside Businesses
Formulation of Board approved policies for the multi -stage competitive license award
process and implementation of the policy to date and was instrumental in achieving the
- - Board approved "competitive business policy" and unique license award process. If the
process is judiciously administered, and protected from adverse "special interests", it will
be one of the key elements of a cost efficient service goal of the Authority.
Aviation Fuel
Assisted, and as required, lead, 12 Government Departments in issues surrounding the
complex commercial requirements concerning competitive open access, strategic fuel
supply criteria, site selection, and the marine and environment impact studies etc.
Instrumental in achieving Board agreement for the aviation industry's aim of obtaining
open access to strategic aviation fuel receiving depots and the fuel hydrant distribution
for into plane refueling.—

Cross -field Tunnels and Taxiways
10 Developed a new scheme and functionally lay out, to eliminate one of the two proposed
cross -field vehicular tunnels. This created both space, that was needed for ground
handling services, and substantial cost savings by constructing only one tunnel at this
time. This realigned tunnel now greatly improves mid -field functional service flexibility
for the "Y" and future "X" concourses (for competitive ground equipment maintenance,
refuse services etc.). while retaining all terminal frontage aircraft stands. It provided an
alternative and more efficient air traffic control tower site and the efficient use of land
along with the ability to safeguard a commuter and regional aircraft passenger terminal
that will maximize the use of existing terminal 1 infrastructure and airfield efficiency
during peak periods. It may also delay the need for the "X" terminal requirement.
Terminal Baggage Handling and Processing
Assisted Engineering Department with design review and communication with IATA.
This related to the functional capability of the proposed system, operational aspects,
alternative security screening, bag transfer design, system expansion philosophies and
system integration requirements with other Airport Systems and its master data base.
Passenger Terminal Government Accommodation
Successfully rationalized and negotiated with various Government terminal service
provides the relocation of over 5,500m2 of their assigned space that was in the prime
commercial revenue generating areas of the terminal:
Immigration Operational Areas
Convinced a very reluctant Director of Immigration, and in turn his policy Branch and
_ central. government, that their preferred .centralized terminal immigration processing
arrangements were functionally inefficient. The views of the Director -were revised and
immigrations is now a major ally of the Authority in all immigration related issues. This
achievement can be measured by the retention of landside and airside retail/catering areas
and the creation of passenger transfer areas that were either non . existent or under
" designed.

Revenue & Operating Costs - Forecasting and Budgeting
A critical review of the professional prepared revenue forecasts was completed, which
resulted in many reservations concerning specific revenue targets set forth therein and
the assumptions used in the forecasts. Ongoing revised forecast, subject to commercial
negotiation of airport support licenses, were produced and passed to Strategic Planning

and Finance. In addition, a computer program was devised to centralize all revenue and
cost assumptions to achieve a "real time" forecast update when any assumption is
reviewed. This is a critical tool for sensitivity analysis and developing substitute revenue
targets.
Transfer Passenger Arrangements
Corrected major terminal design aspects throughout the concourses. The architectural
design and related functional areas being proposed would not have functioned given the
number of passengers involved and the physical passenger flow characteristics. -
Airfield Fire Fighting System
Advised Project's infrastructure group of the potential major capital savings without
abrogating airport safety requirements, of an alternative system.
Potential Commuter Aircraft Terminal
By relocating airport support services to the mid -field area, the opportunity now arises
to develop, now or in the future, a cost-effective transfer to the West of the "Y"
concourse. It is firmly believed that these services (up to 150 pax.) to the PRC will be
a major market driver in the future. This is especially so, with pre -clearance
possibilities, to lesser served airports in China.
Two conceptual safeguarding schemes have been completed which, could provide in its
final phase up to 25 aircraft parking positions, handle 3,000 pax. per hour, directly
linked to the terminal APM and baggage handling systems.
Aircraft Apron Stand Road Layout
Corrected a potentially flawed ramp design and operational approach to apron vehicle
circulation routes which if followed would have resulted in serious congestion and in
efficient ramp operations. More importantly this would have resulted in the inability to
meet published flight schedule times which is the cornerstone of airline, and airport,
competitive strategies.
Policy Positions on Support Services
Agreement with the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAO) on the general
approach to the award of all airport licenses on the basis of a fair and non-discriminatory
approach. The approach recognizes that the historic tender process for retail
concessions, etc. is no longer workable or desirable. «"

Airport Passenger and Related Traffic Forecasts
Achieved an agreement with IATA that long running forecast issues should be set -aside
and replaced by forecast reviews, simulation exercises, information sharing and a
commitment from the Authority to review expansion phasing strategy with new forecasts.
Assisting the Authority with key forecasting scope requirements and the selection and
ultimate management of a major traffic forecasting .consultancy concerning landside
traffic and the commercial interests of the Division.
Airport Security Systems
Initiated and chaired the new airport security planning committee and airport membership
of the Government Security Committee. The aim was to procure a cost effective and
security efficient airport system(s) that addresses the level of security threat that Hong
Kong represents. This includes the cost benefit to risk assessment of security
infrastructure; a most difficult task and extremely costly to the Authority and air carriers
if not carried out in earnest. In this regard prepared a revised security program for the
new airport for submission to Government for their review and consideration in
developing the Hong Kong Airport Security Program for compliance by all air carriers
and users of the Airport.
In addition, continual review of the design architects proposed terminal security screening
systems including identification of major cost saving areas e.g. CCTV and required
system integration to assure efficiency of operation and reduced costs.
Aircraft Terminal Frontal Gate Positions
— _ Lead a design effort -to achieve an all 747400 aircraft frontal gate terminal design. Such
a design is a first for an international airport of this size.
M Airport Rates, Fees and Charges
Developed a policy and charging mechanisms to devise and achieve fair rates, fees and
N charges for airport commercial activities and services and that are structured to compete
against any regional Airport if implemented as recommended.
Helicopter & Executive Aviation Services
Completed a draft functional layout for the joint utilization of these two services with the
m Government Flying Service Dept. for the apron area, a goal that should be achieved in
f CPA,,.

order to develop efficient aircraft ramps and reduce costs to both Government and the
Authority.
Integrated Ground Transportation Service Centre
Following a critical review of the terminal design architects ground transportation
proposals in relation to the planned in -terminal heavy rail transportation station (MTRC)
connecting the Airport with the Hong .Kong commercial districts, lead the study, with
' Engineering, to completely redesign the ground transportation services and related
infrastructure. This involved locating Terminal 2, relocating the MTRC station outside
of, but midway between, both terminals and centralizing all other transport mode
infrastructure in a largely airconditioned environment.
This exercise finally addressed the needs of the airline industry, the tourism industry,
ground transportation service providers, MTRC (initially a reluctant party), airport users
" and now provides the potential to create the gateway image the community expects. This
conceptual scheme is now under detailed design.
Government Standalone Facilities
Completed a review of government land requirements with a view to minimizing the lost
of revenue generating land and land eventually required for external airport services.
Private Treaty Land Grant
■ Drafted a wide ranging internal position paper concerning the impacts of the
proposed land grant terms and conditions on the ability of the Authority to
manage its affairs and -its statutory obligations concerning the provision of air
- - transportation services for Hong Kong.
■ Prepared a -position paper for negotiations with Government concerning:
- land classifications;
- classification development value;
- gross developable space calculations;
- development phasing;
- town planning and development plot ratio issues;
- initial and future land premia; and
- lead the rebuttal of Government's land development proposals.

Prepared a draft user agreement for air carrier use of Airport Facilities ad for the
assignment of terminal accommodations to all carriers. It will shape the overall Airport
Charges and all carrier terminal use policy of the Authority as it relates to international
obligations and future air carrier contract relationships for accommodations to provide
their air transport activities in an efficient and competitive manner.
Mass Transit Railway Corporation
■ Negotiated the commercial agreement for the railway system.
■ Contributing extensively to the design and operational concept and how to provide
all functional aspects of the airport and downtown requirements for the potential
in -town check -in system.
Airport Signaae and Graphics
Defined and located all of the critical primary airport signage and graphics program; an
issue which was in danger of evolving into an operational morass. The program takes
signage and graphics from the MTRC stations; on -board the trains; and from the Lantau
Expressway to the aircraft door.
Waste Management
Carried out a detailed assessment of the waste management and associated rodent control
measures which should be adopted during airport design, construction and operation.
Items addressed and conclusions recommended were:
- Detailed re -assessment .of current waste quantities both generated at Kai Tak and
_ from surveys of prospective licensees; thereafter projected to the new airport.
- Concluded that the proposed on -island refuse transfer station may probably not
be required, a capital saving of over $80M.
- Resolved, with Government's control agency, the requirements to transship
terminal waste from airside to landside.
- Identified terminal waste collection and transfer areas.
- Identified a minimum level of waste collection and compacting facilities required.
- Proposed measures to control rodent infestation at the various stages of the airport
project.
- Business Plans
Prepared the PAA long term Business Plans for all of the major ground handling
service licenses. This including the strategy for developing cargo, passenger

the competitive position of the new airport is truly implemented.
Ticket Counters
Completely redesign the ticket counters and related service facilities to be provided by
such counters. The redesign is a modular design that provides for the future modification
as service requirements change and without major interference with air carrier
operations. The new design incorporated the air condition for the check -in area and thus
eliminated numerous stand alone air conditioning delivery systems throughout the
passenger movement corridors and staging areas of the departure area of the terminal.

PROMOTION OF WOMEN IN THE WORK PLACE
1959 Appointed a woman as Chief Fiscal Officer of the Dade
County Port Authority which at the time was the highest
management position held by a woman in Dade County
government.
1962 While Comptroller of the Florida DOT, appointed a woman
to the first ever management position. Strange as it may
seem, this appointment at first was not well accepted by
other women in the DOT who were then limited to the
position of secretary.
1968 + As Deputy Director of the Dade County Port Authority
(Aviation Department), appointed a woman as Comptroller,
the highest executive position at that time in Dade
County government.
When becoming Director of MIA, appointed a woman as the
Chief Financial Officer of the Aviation Department.
Employed women out of college in key management intern
positions for placement in the Aviation Department and in
other areas of county government.
Employed numerous women college students to summer intern
positions.
Required the "Big Eight" firm responsible for the multi-
million dollar accounting and management services
contract at MIA to promote a woman to be in complete
charge of all their MIA contract services. During this
period, she developed her talents and broadened her
knowledge and experience with extensive help from me.
She has since become a full partner at her firm and
continues to manage the MIA contract today.
Required that a woman attorney of a major Washington D.C.
law firm be in charge and fully responsible for all MIA
legal work in D.C. which involved close to -a million
dollar in services. This position made it possible for
her to receive speaking engagements and other exposure
concerning the work product she performed for the
Aviation Department and to obtain other new clients.
While Aviation Director at Miami International I
appointed women to the following additional positions:

Chief of the Architectural Division
Chief of Terminal Operations Contract services now
responsible for all Terminal Operations
Chief of Passenger Support Services within the
International Terminal custom facility and the
Visitor's Reception Center
- Promoted a black woman to head the Personnel and
Administrative Services Division of the Aviation
Department. There never was the slightest instance
of female harassment within the Aviation Department
and I received numerous applications from women
working in Dade County government for transfer to
the Aviation Department. In addition, on numerous
` occasions many women in government and in the
private sector thanked me for the road I was paving
for women in the work place.
Selected the first black woman firm to manage and
operate a terminal concession and required that
women be given management responsibility in numerus
key terminal service and concession contracts.
As a member of the Executive Board of the Airport
Operators Council International (AOCI) (serving over 250
international airports), successfully lobbied the
appointment of a woman as Deputy Executive Director and
made possible the employment of women in other
responsible positions within AOCI.
As Chairman elect of AOCI, appointed the first woman to
head a major AOCI Standing Committee.
After retiring from MIA, I was involved in assisting a
woman (that I appointed as comptroller of the Aviation
Department) to be"appointed the Deputy Director of Fort
- Lauderdale Airport, the highest Airport appointment in
Florida. Prior to retiring, I had reclassified the
Comptroller position to an Assistant Director position
which at the time would have been the only Assistant
Director position in the U.S. held by a woman. I
aggressively assisted career women that moved into the
public sector with professional references and continue
to do so today.

1990 Since starting Judy & Associates, I selected a newly
_M formed Washington D.C. firm owned by a woman to join me
as a contract associate to be a part of my first contract
to develop the cargo market for the Kansas City Airport.
I did the same for a concession study at Philadelphia
Airport. Neither of these decisions by me were prompted
by a contract requirement of the respective airports.
Recommended successfully and am currently negotiating a
contract on behalf of the Fort Myers Airport with a 50%
woman owned firm to perform an air service marketing
contract that would easily involve compensation in the
range of $200,000 for this firm over the next three
years.
Presently negotiating a contract with a woman associate
to perform commercial development services at the
Freeport Bahamas Port Authority.
Scheduled on June 11, 1992 to receive an award from the
FAA at the National Conference of Disadvantages Business
Enterprises and Women Minorities in Atlanta, Georgia.
This organization was begun at my suggestion and I helped
draft the first bylaws for the proposed national
organization. I am advised that the award I am to
receive is in appreciation for all the contributions I
have made in developing unique programs for women and
minorities to enable their participation in airport
�w business opportunities that were thereafter used by the
FAA as examples for assisting DBEs throughout the
nation's airports. I assigned a woman executive
assistant to me to assist on a day to day basis the FAA
Southern Region office responsible for DBE and minority
compliance regulations.
AW Currently assisting and advising gratis a woman owned
firm in seeking architectural service opportunities
throughout the United States.
Assisting a Afro-American owned female minority firm in
Washington D.C. to be 'successful in bidding on airport
concession opportunities. I am providing these services
at fifty percent of my hourly fee when it is -necessary
for me to go to Washington D.C. to assist in preparing a
response to a RFP.
I accept speaking requests at conferences to assist DBEs
in how to grow their businesses at Airports and to
respond to Requests for Proposals from Airports.
Finally, I encouraged by daughter to seek an appointment
to the U.S. Navel Academy during the early years of the

new women admission mandate. She received an appointment
on her merit and sacrificed a great deal to help pioneer
the acceptance of women at the Academy which
disgracefully has a long way to go. Because of the
extreme harassment by her male peers and the neglect of
her superiors, she left the Academy after her second
year.
I have not discussed my efforts to promote and keep the
families together of certain Afro-Americans ;and other
minorities) who worked for the Department in both labor
and skilled positions when they became involved in drugs.
I personally dealt with each case and permitted no
dismissals without first having made every possible
effort to help them.

Steps Down as Aviation Director;
Elder Named Interim Director
After 18 years as Dade County
Aviation Director, Richard H.
Judy announced April 28th
that he will be taking early
retirement. Judy will serve as a
special assistant to County
Manager Joaquin Avino working
to develop new international air
service among other special pro-
jects until ' January when he will
take full retirement, after 30 years
of public service in Florida.
County Manager Avino an-
nounced the creation of a national
search committee for a new
aviation director and appointed
Frederick Elder, Airport Deputy
Director of Governmental Affairs,
as interim director of the Aviation
Department until a permanent
- director is chosen.
_Ju-dy, 57, became director -of the
Aviation Department in 1971 and
b oversaw booming growth at the
nation's eighth largest passen-
ger airport and the world's
sixth largest international cargo
airport. During his tenure,
passengers more than doubled
from 11.1 million in 1971 to 24.5
million in 1988 and cargo grew
from 289,000 tons to 757,000
over the same period.
With a 'national reputation as a
dynamic and unconventional in-
novator, Judy was recognized as a
legend in the aviation industry for
his aggressive style of airport
management. He shunned then-
Richard H. Judy
traditional . airport financial
operating practices and converted
long term exclusive -use leases to
short term operating leases. He
retained control for the airport of
many commercial activities such
as the airport hotel, restaurants,
duty-free shops and retail stores
opting to run them through
airport management agreements
instead of contracting them out to
concessionaires. Judy was the
first airport director to use tax
exempt commercial paper to
finance airport expansion and was
the first airport operator in
the nation to provide child care
services for airport and air-
line employees at an on -airport
Jocation. ,.
Rederich Elder
Interim Aviation Director
As a result of his management
innovations, quality and variety
improved, levels of service
improved and revenues soared.
Since the airport is totally
self-financing, both in operations
and construction, these revenues
allowed construction projects to
keep pace with cargo and pas-
senger growth, while airline costs
were kept low, encouraging more
airline service to Miami.
"Judy is a total innovator who is
recognized around the world. He's
done a tremendous amount of
good. He will be sorely missed,"
(Continued on back page)

(Continued from page 1)
said Phil Bakes, president of
Eastern Airlines.
Judy first served as comptroller
for the Dade County Port
Authority in 1959, the forerunner
of the Aviation Department and
then spent several years with a
private accounting firm. In 1961
he went to Tallahassee as comp-
troller for the state road
department, returning to the
aviation department as deputy
director in 1967. He was ap-
pointed aviation director in 1971.
"I feel that my greatest ac-
complishment in making Miami
International Airport a top-notch
facility is the staff I have been
able to put together. The team
that runs this airport is what
really makes it tick. I know they
are going to continue the first-
rate job they've been doing,"
Judy said.
The selection committee for a new
aviation director will be chaired
by Armando M. Codina, president
of the Codina Group, Inc. and
chairman -elect of the Greater
Miami Chamber of Commerce.
Other members of the search
committee include: former Coun-
ty Manager Ray Goode, president
of the Babcock Company; Arthur
Hill, president of People National
Bank; Carmen Lunetta, director
of the Seaport; and Assistant
County Managers, Cynthia Curry
and Anthony Clemente.

RICHARD H. JUDY
PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT
R SUMMARY OF PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
Richard H. Judy is the former Director of the Dade County Aviation Department,
operator of Miami International Airport and five other county airports.
y
Mr. Judy guided the Miami international airport aviation system through a
challenging twenty year period of change and passenger, cargo, commercial and net
revenue growth that is continuing today under a new management team. Miami
International Airport during this period ranked among the top ten airports of the
world in terms of total annual passengers served and tons of cargo handled, and for
its ability to generate commercial revenue while maintaining an internationally
recognized low operating cost environment for its air carrier service providers.
Mr. Judy began his career after receiving a Bachelor of Business Administration
degree from the University of Miami in 1953, and has pursued extensive post-
graduate studies in law, taxation and related subjects. During the early part of his
career, he accumulated.a vast amount of experience in financial management and
commercial development in the private sector and in various local and state
government positions. In 1967, he became Deputy Director of the Dade County
Port Authority, precursor of the Dade County Aviation Department, and was
appointed Aviation Director in 1971.
Mr. Judy is known throughout the worldwide aviation community, and is highly
respected for his skills as a manager, planner, negotiator, financier, developer of

consulted by airports and related industries in regard to every aspect of terminal,
airside and landside functional design and the development of cost efficient airport
services system and the integration of such system for the efficient use by all users
of the
airport as and when needed.
This has
been
clearly confirmed by
his
dual
interim
appointment as Commercial
Director
and
Operations Director
of
the

The following lists, is not particular order, the major wora(produced during the past 19 months
effective October 1992.
Passenger Terminal Building Level Changes & Redesign
y' This fundamental project achievement evolved out of a series of critical functional
reviews of the then current terminal functional design including all airport service
systems and their operational and integration requirements. The review played the major
role in resolving the functional service designs, accommodation and operational issues
' that the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the tourism industry,
amongst others, found fundamentally unacceptable with the multi -level design and related
ground transportation infrastructure then being proposed by the design architect. An
extensive list of other functional design concerns of IATA have also been successfully
addressed.
The current functional systems design direction is now accepted and supported by all
airport user groups except several that have been modified by the PAA due to costs.
Aircraft Maintenance Services

■ The policy for airline self -handling has been developed for air carrier
consultation. This impacts on every aspect of the Airport Support Services
concerning air carrier ground handling activities from passenger check -in to
aircraft push back.
Airline Operations
■ A major, global airline consultation document has been prepared and issued to all
Kai Tak airline users.
■ The consultation process, which will take 9-12 months, will shape all airport
operational aspects for many years including the Airport Charging Schedule,
related cost basis for formulating the Airport Charges and rates of return 'on
equity and net assets for future development. The conclusions will form the
bedrock for operational and airline commercial policy and Airport Charge setting
that complies with international obligations concerning their fairness and
reasonableness and the level of economic return to the Authority. This includes
related matters for complying with Government monitoring and approval
processes involving Airport Charges. The draft use agreement to be entered into
with the air carriers for the use of airport facilities and exclusive accommodation
has been completed and will be issued for consultation with air carriers.
Retail and Catering Services
■ Completed -the terminal commercial space planning exercise while at the same
time never compromising the overall service mission of the terminal. This major
airport retail business centre extends over 35'00Om2 and represents around 1/3 of
total airport revenues: The commercial space, currently being themed and
designed in detail for consideration by prospective retail licensees, can evolve into
a world class retail and catering centre if properly implemented by the Authority
and the retail licensees. The task to date was completed in the face of many
difficulties from Government customs resistance, to terminal architectural design
constraints.
Terminal Building Accommodation
■ Lead and completed terminal redesign to accommodate all carrier and ground
handling service providers and their data base requirements for use of all Airport
systems as needed and to achieve the goal of a cost efficient, quality service
world class airport. The task was achieved against a backdrop of a flawed
systems integration plan and implementation program regarding the level of

Airport systems and related service definition for the efficient operation of the
w. airport service systems and ground handling services and functions.
Landside Development
■ Participated heavily in, and partially lead, the review of the airport island Master
Plan options for final design of all operational facilities and functions.
■ Conducted development analyses of hotel, freight forwarding and office complex
proposals.
■ Reviewed compensatory cost analyses for airport island land creation in order to
achieve a minimum payback scenario and to define costs that play a strategic role
in revenue returns from related Airport Charges.
Fixed Apron Aircraft Support Services
An operational policy and design guidance for fixed ground power, pre -conditioned air,
� potable water, etc. and their related integration into a total Airport System was
completed.
Completion of the Aerodrome Manual
This cornerstone document which is required in order to achieve an aerodrome license
from government for the new airport. The manual was written for the immediate use by
Kai Tak, who did not have a single, rationalized operational document.
Airside Businesses
Formulation of Board approved policies for the multi -stage competitive license award
process and implementation of the policy to date and was instrumental in achieving the
- Board approved "competitive business policy" and unique license award process. If the
process is judiciously administered. and protected from adverse "special interests", it will
be one of the key elements of a cost efficient service goal of the Authority.
Aviation Fuel
Assisted, and as required, lead, 12 Government Departments in issues surrounding the
complex commercial requirements concerning competitive open access, strategic fuel
supply criteria, site selection, and the marine and environment impact studies etc.
Instrumental in achieving Board agreement for the aviation industry's aim of obtaining
"open access" to strategic aviation fuel receiving depots and the_fuel hydrant distribution
for into plane refueling.

Cross -field Tunnels and Taxiways
Developed a new scheme and functionally lay out, to eliminate one of the two proposed.
cross -field vehicular tunnels. This created both space, that was needed for ground
handling services, and substantial cost savings by constructing only one tunnel at this
time. This realigned tunnel now greatly improves mid -field functional service flexibility
for the "Y" and future "X" concourses (for competitive ground equipment maintenance,
refuse services etc.) while retaining all terminal frontage aircraft stands. It provided an
alternative and more efficient air traffic control tower site and the efficient use of land
along with the ability 'to safeguard a commuter and regional aircraft passenger terminal
that will maximize the use of existing terminal 1 infrastructure and airfield efficiency
during peak periods. It may also delay the need for the "X" terminal requirement.
Terminal Baggage Handling and Processing.
Assisted Engineering Department with design review and communication with IATA.
This related to the functional capability of the proposed system, operational aspects,
alternative security screening, bag transfer design, system expansion philosophies and
system integration requirements with other Airport Systems and its master data base.
Passenger Terminal Government Accommodation
Successfully rationalized and negotiated with various Government terminal service
provides the relocation of over 5,500m2 of their assigned space that was in the prime
commercial revenue generating areas of the terminal.
Immigration Operational Areas
Convinced a very reluctant Director of Immigration, and in turn his policy Branch and
— - central government, that their preferred centralized terminal immigration processing
arrangements were functionally inefficient. The views of the Director -were revised and
immigrations is now a major ally of the Authority in all immigration related issues. This
achievement can be measured by the retention of landside and airside retaU/catering areas
and the creation of passenger transfer areas that were either non existent or under
designed.
Revenue & Operating Costs - Forecasting and Budgeting
A critical review of the professional prepared revenue forecasts was completed, which
resulted in many reservations concerning specific revenue targets set forth therein and
the assumptions used in the forecasts. Ongoing revised forecast, subject to commercial
negotiation of airport support licenses, were produced and passed to Strategic Planning

>a and Finance. In addition, a computer program was devised to centralize all revenue and
cost assumptions to achieve a "real time" forecast update when any assumption is
reviewed. This is a critical tool for sensitivity analysis and developing substitute revenue
targets.
Transfer PassenL-er Arrangements
Corrected major terminal design aspects throughout the concourses. The architectural
design and related functional areas being proposed would not have functioned given the
number of passengers involved and the physical passenger flow characteristics.
Airfield Fire Fighting System
Advised Project's infrastructure group of the potential major capital savings without
abrogating airport safety requirements, of an alternative system.
" Potential Commuter Aircraft Terminal
By relocating airport support services to the mid -field area, the opportunity now arises
to develop, now or in the future, a cost-effective transfer to the West of the "Y"
concourse. It is firmly believed that these services (up to 150 pax.) to the PRC will be
a major market driver in the future. This is especially so, with pre -clearance
possibilities, to lesser served airports in China.
Two conceptual safeguarding schemes have been completed which could provide in its
final phase up to 25. aircraft parking positions, handle 3,000 pax. per hour, directly
linked to the terminal APM and baggage handling systems.
- — - Aircraft Apron Stand Road Layout
Corrected a potentially flawed ramp design and operational approach to apron vehicle
circulation routes which if followed would have resulted in serious congestion and in
efficient ramp operations. More importantly this would have resulted in the inability to
meet published flight schedule times which is the cornerstone of airline, and airport,
competitive strategies.
Policy Positions on Support Services
Agreement with the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAO) on the general
approach to the award of all airport licenses on the basis of a fair and non-discriminatory
approach. The approach recognizes that the historic tender process for retail
concessions, etc. is no longer workable or desirable.

Airport Passenger and Related Traffic Forecasts
Achieved an agreement with IATA that long running forecast issues should be set -aside
and replaced by forecast reviews, simulation exercises, information sharing and a
commitment from the Authority to review expansion phasing strategy with new forecasts.
Assisting the Authority with key forecasting scope requirements and the selection and
ultimate management of a major traffic forecasting consultancy concerning landside
traffic and the commercial interests of the Division.
Airport Security. Systems
Initiated and chaired the new airport security planning committee and airport membership
of the Government Security Committee. The aim was to procure a cost effective and
security efficient airport system(s) that addresses the level of security threat that Hong
Kong represents. This includes the cost benefit to risk assessment of security
uifrastructure; a most difficult task and extremely costly to the Authority and air carriers
if not carried out in earnest. In this regard prepared a revised security program for the
new airport for submission to Government for their review and consideration in
developing the Hong Kong Airport Security Program for compliance by all air carriers
and users of the Airport.
In addition, continual review of the design architects proposed terminal security screening
systems including identification of major cost saving areas e.g. CCTV and required
system integration to assure efficiency of operation and reduced costs.
Aircraft Terminal Frontal Gate Positions
Lead a design effort to achieve an all 747-400 aircraft frontal gate terminal design. Such
a design is a first for an international airport of this size.
Airport Rates. Fees and Charges
Developed a policy and charging mechanisms to devise and achieve fair rates, fees and
charges for airport commercial activities and services and that are structured to compete
against any regional Airport if implemented as recommended.
Helicopter & Executive Aviation Services
Completed a draft functional layout for the joint utilization of these two services with the
Government Flying Service Dept. for the apron area, a goal that should be achieved in

order to develop efficient aircraft ramps and reduce costs to both Government and the
Authority.
Integrated Ground Transportation Service Centre
Following a critical review of the terminal design architects ground transportation
proposals in relation to the planned in -terminal heavy rail transportation station (MTRC)
connecting the Airport with the Hong Kong commercial districts, lead the study, with
Engineering, to completely redesign the ground transportation services and related
infrastructure. This involved locating Terminal 2, relocating the MTRC station outside
of, but midway between, both terminals and centralizing all other transport mode
' infrastructure in a largely airconditioned environment.
This exercise finally addressed the needs of the airline industry, the tourism industry,
ground transportation service providers, MTRC (initially a reluctant party), airport users
and now provides the potential to create the gateway image the community expects. This
conceptual scheme is now under detailed design.
' Government Standalone Facilities
Completed a review of government land requirements with a view to minimizing the lost
of revenue generating land and land eventually required for external airport services.
Private Treaty Land Grant
■ Drafted a wide ranging internal position paper concerning the impacts of the
proposed land grant terms and conditions on the ability of the Authority to
manage its affairs and its statutory obligations concerning the provision of air .
- transportation services for Hong Kong.
■ Prepared a position paper for negotiations with Government concerning:
- land classifications;
- classification development value;
- gross developable space calculations;
- development phasing;
- town planning and development plot ratio issues;
- initial and future land premia; and
- lead the rebuttal of Government's land development proposals.

Prepared a draft user agreement for air carrier use of Airport Facilities ad for- the
assignment of terminal accommodations to all carriers. It will shape the overall Airport
Charges and all carrier terminal use policy of the Authority as it relates to international
obligations and future air carrier contract relationships for accommodations to provide
their air transport activities in an efficient and competitive manner.
Mass Transit Railway Corporation
■ Negotiated the commercial agreement for the railway system.
■ Contributing extensively to the design and operational concept and how to provide
all functional aspects of the airport and downtown requirements for the potential
in -town check -in system.
Airport Signage and Graphics
Defined and located all of the critical primary airport signage and graphics program; an
issue which was in danger of evolving into an operational morass. The program takes
signage and graphics from the MTRC stations; on -board the trains; and from the Lantau
Expressway to the aircraft door.
Waste Management
Carried out a detailed assessment of the waste management and associated rodent control
measures which should be adopted during airport design, construction and operation.
W. Items addressed and conclusions recommended were:
- Detailed re -assessment -of current waste quantities both generated at Kai Tak and
- - from surveys of prospective licensees; thereafter projected to the new airport.
- Concluded that the proposed on -island refuse transfer station -may probably not
be required, a capital saving of over $80M.
- Resolved, with Government's control agency, the requirements to transship
terminal waste from airside to landside.
- Identified terminal waste collection and transfer areas.
- Identified a minimum level of waste collection and compacting facilities required.
- Proposed measures to control rodent infestation at the various stages of the airport
project.
- Business Plans
Prepared the PAA long tern Business Plans for all of the major ground handling
service licenses. This including the strategy for develop iog,cargo, passenger

services, fuel supply, open access, freight forwarding services that will maintain
the competitive position of the new airport is truly implemented.
Ticket Counters
Completely redesign the ticket counters and related service facilities to be provided by
such counters. The redesign is a modular design that provides for the future modification
as service requirements change and without major interference with air carrier
operations. The new design incorporated the air condition for the check -in area and thus .
eliminated numerous stand alone air conditioning delivery systems throughout the
passenger movement corridors and staging areas of the departure area of the terminal.
