On December 21, 2004 Securaplane Technologies signed a contract with Boeing to provide a Wireless Emergency Lighting System (WELS) for the 787 Dreamliner. WELS is the world's first such system to be installed and certified on a large passenger transport aircraft.
Securaplane is the first company in aviation to successfully design, certify, build and support a critical wireless system on an aircraft with its wireless cargo smoke detection and suppression system, now flying on over 1500 airliners.
