Description
The 0431017-2 is a genuine Textron Aviation mounting plate assembly supplied as a built-up assembly of several components in a single installable unit. It is fitted to the Skyhawk and Skylane. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 0.02 pounds, and measures 1.95 (L) x 1.9 (W) x 0.25 (H) Inches.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the 0431017-2 is built to the aircraft maker's specification and cross-references the type design as documented in the maintenance data. Choosing the genuine part over an unapproved substitute preserves configuration control and simplifies inspection sign-offs.
Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Skyhawk and Skylane aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
Supplied as a defined part in the manufacturer's catalog, its exact role is set by the aircraft's parts and maintenance data. Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value.
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.
Cessna traces to the company Clyde Cessna founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927; Textron Inc. acquired it in 1992, and since 2014 it has anchored Textron Aviation alongside Beechcraft and Hawker. The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is the most-produced aircraft in history, with more than 44,000 built since 1956, and remains in production under Textron Aviation.
