Description
The 0515016-12 is a genuine Textron Aviation carpet assembly aft supplied as a built-up assembly of several components in a single installable unit. 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 0515016-12 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.
Because the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
As a factory-supplied item for a type-certificated aircraft, this part is defined by the manufacturer's specification and applicability data. OEM parts arrive to the specification the type design was certified against, preserving both airworthiness and the airframe's documented configuration.
The factory part is built to the manufacturer's material and dimensional specification, so it installs as designed without the surprises a generic equivalent can bring. 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.
