Description
The 0512247-6 is a genuine Textron Aviation angle that serves a joining or reinforcing role within the airframe structure. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the 0512247-6 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.
Across the Cessna Skyhawk fleet, correctly identified factory parts like this keep every airframe consistent and configuration-correct.
As a load-bearing element, a part in this role must match the original material and dimensions precisely to keep the airframe's engineered strength intact. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation.
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. Traceable OEM hardware keeps an aircraft's maintenance records defensible at annual, pre-purchase, and pre-buy inspections.
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.
