PLACARD, MANUVERING SPEED

The 0505048-8 is a genuine Textron Aviation placard manuvering speed that forms part of the aircraft's standardized labeling and marking scheme. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991. Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the 0505048-8 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records. Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common. Required placarding is a certificated detail of the aircraft, so the exact factory marking keeps the configuration correct at inspection. Using the factory part number preserves configuration control, so the airframe stays consistent with its approved type design and the work is straightforward to sign off at inspection. On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front. Because substitutions on type-certificated aircraft require approved data, the genuine part is the straightforward, compliant choice for this application. Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value. Built by Textron Aviation, whose Cessna line was founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927 and joined Textron in 1992, this part carries one of general aviation's most storied names. 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.
