Description
The 0523029-14 is a genuine Textron Aviation leading edge assembly 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.
Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the 0523029-14 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records.
Because the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
This is a cataloged factory part whose form, fit, and function are established by the manufacturer's approved data. Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated.
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. Genuine factory parts carry the documentation and traceability that maintenance and airworthiness records depend on — assurance a look-alike substitute cannot provide.
Fitting the correct factory part the first time avoids the rework, removal, and re-inspection that an incorrect or unapproved part can trigger.
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.
