For Immediate Release


SECURAPLANE DELIVERS INDUSTRY’S FIRST 
MINIATURE AIRBORNE VIDEO CAMERA SYSTEM

TUCSON, AZ – 16 June, 1999 – Securaplane Technologies L.L.C announced today 
the delivery of the aviation industries’ first miniature video camera system. The innovative 
product, known as CAM-10, is a 1.5 lbs. low-profile, aerodynamic package containing four 
high-resolution, low-light monochrome cameras. The CAM-10 is installed on the aircraft 
fuselage to provide 360 degree high-definition views of the area around the aircraft including 
landing gear, engines, etc.  The CAM-10 – and its sister color camera product, CAM-11 – 
are used for security, safety, ground maneuvering, and in-flight entertainment.

Although capable of stand-alone operation, the  CAM-10 is a plug-in option to Securaplane’s 
System 450 and 500 Electronic Aircraft Security Systems. In its security mode, the CAM-10 
is activated when an intrusion is detected. The affected zone is recorded for subsequent 
viewing by the aircraft’s crew.

Three CAM-10 systems were delivered. Two systems went to Raytheon Systems Company 
for Boeing Business Jet installations and one system was delivered to ASB Avionics and 
Associated Air Center for installation on a VIP B767. 

"Our reputation for delivering high-quality, intelligently-designed avionics has contributed to our 
success in introducing the CAM-10"; said Mark Lukso, Securaplane’s Vice-President of Sales 
and Marketing. "The industry’s response to Securaplane’s video camera product line has been 
overwhelmingly positive". 

"It was a team effort all the way"; added Jim McCann, Securaplane’s product manager for airborne 
video imaging systems. "We were able to go from initial concept to production in less than 16 weeks".

Securaplane offers a complete video camera suite for security, safety, flight test and in-flight 
entertainment including external viewing zoom cameras, vertical fin mounted cameras, and internal 
cabin viewing cameras.  More information can be found at Securaplane’s web site, www.securaplane.com. 
Securaplane is also exhibiting at the Paris Air Show ’99 in Hall 4, Stand B2.

Securaplane Technologies L.L.C., is a leading supplier of avionics systems and components such as
