Description
The 0500834-44 is a genuine Textron Aviation pad supplied for use on the aircraft, with its precise function defined by the aircraft's parts data. It fits the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
Because the 0500834-44 is an original-equipment (OEM) part sourced directly from Textron Aviation, it matches the exact specification and placement called out in the aircraft's type design and maintenance data — assurance a generic substitute cannot offer.
Because the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
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.
Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated. Traceable OEM hardware keeps an aircraft's maintenance records defensible at annual, pre-purchase, and pre-buy inspections.
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.
