Description
The 000-170000-73 is a genuine Textron Aviation glareshield wing tip assembly — the structural cap at the outboard end of the wing, carrying tip hardware and shaping airflow. It is fitted to the Baron Series B55, E55, 58 or G58. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
As an original-equipment (OEM) structural part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the 000-170000-73 is manufactured to the aircraft maker's specification for material, dimensions, and finish, and cross-references the type design exactly as documented in the maintenance data. For a structural member, the genuine correctly identified part preserves the engineered load paths and keeps the airframe configuration-correct.
Because the Beechcraft Baron aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
Structural parts like this carry and transfer loads through the airframe, so exact form and fit are essential to preserving the design's strength and fatigue life. Because substitutions on type-certificated aircraft require approved data, the genuine part is the straightforward, compliant choice for this application.
The value of an OEM part is as much in its paperwork and pedigree as its metal — both of which an aircraft's records require.
Beechcraft, founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1932, joined Cessna and Hawker under Textron Aviation in 2014, which today supports the worldwide Beechcraft fleet with genuine factory parts. The Baron — a twin-engine member of Beechcraft's piston line introduced in 1961 — shares much of its structure and hardware with the Bonanza.
