Yawn,,, this is more advertising than anything else
Here's a real problem to tackle: misleading flight performance data. The FAA keeps so much data for on-time/delay statistics that let airlines manipulate their data to appear more on-time than they are. Landing, or touch-down times are meaningless and misleading. The only flight performance datum that means anything is when the door opens at the gate so that I can get off the plane. When I traveled a lot in the past, I kept a spreadsheet of exactly that so that I could both keep track of my flight travels, but also look at airline performance that could influence my ticketing choices. I saw that some airlines' "arrival" statistics were far different from my door-opens-at-the-gate metric.
Keep the monitors and infrastructure. If you want to do anything marketable for your company, have them figure out a way to help the airports keep flight data up-to-date so that we know immediately what the real, actual departure times are.
