The present invention provides a fixture or device which is particularly adapted for installation within a general aviation aircraft, such as a small private jet, prop-driven plane, helicopter, spacecraft, or other aviation vehicle, and which emits UV-C within safe limits, i.e., within prescribed safe wavelengths, irradiance, and times (below the ‘Actinic Dose’) while the aircraft is occupied, to continuously disinfect the interior air and prevent transmission by not only the COVID-19 virus but other viruses as well. The device, generally, comprises a two-piece or two-part assembly, having a base and a cover which mounts to the ceiling or wall(s) of an aircraft. A UV-C lamp, typically an LED, is disposed within the fixture and projects it therefrom into the cabin, as well as control-electronics to ensure safe emission limits by the LED.
