PWI

Cessna [NYSE: TXT] Citation II 550 and the 525 CJ1 business jets now have an OEM cabin lighting LED solution for replacing all of the original fluorescents. PWI has earned FAA PMA approval for all cabin configurations of the Citation II and the CJ1 models. PWI LED kits replace all fluorescents in the galley, lav and passenger cabin.

Canada-based aircraft parts distributor KADEX Aero Supply chooses PWI in Wichita, KS, to be a worldwide in-stock distributor for its KADEX LED Wing Tip Light Assembly. The assembly is STC-approved and designed for the Beechcraft King Air 350 aircraft.

PWI announces that the National Agency for Civil Aviation (ANAC) in Brazil has given certification approval to the PWI B200/250 window LED upgrade.

PWI announces that the FAA has given the PWI LED Ice Light PMA approval for use in a wide variety of aircraft, from piston planes and turboprops to business jets. The PWI LED Ice Light is designed to be a powerful, efficient alternative to factory-installed bulbs as well as a benefit to overall safety by providing focused illumination of potential icing as well as situational awareness when on the ground.

PWI develops a virus-neutralizing system for use in fighting airborne contaminants aboard commercial aircraft. The device, called Biotek Shield, is designed to be installed in the air-conditioning system of the aircraft and uses UVC (ultraviolet) light technology to neutralize pathogens like bacteria and viruses, including H1N1, SARS, West Nile, tuberculosis and coronavirus.

Without flinching, PWI’s Man Van Tran gingerly holds a fluorescent-light cylinder to a blue glowing flame. His fingers numb to the heat, he steadily blows air through a plastic tube on one end, guiding its shape. In his hand, the tube bends to his will as thousands of other fluorescent lights have done since he first started with PWI back in 1983.
