Description
The 0523806-201 is a genuine Textron Aviation left-hand spar aileron that forms part of the wing's primary load-carrying structure. It fits the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 1.44 pounds, and measures 107.55 (L) x 3.7 (W) x 0.68 (H) Inches.
Because the 0523806-201 is an original-equipment (OEM) structural component from Textron Aviation, it is built to the airframe manufacturer's specification and matches the type design as documented. Fitting the genuine part preserves the wing or airframe's engineered strength and keeps installation and inspection records clean.
Because the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
Airframe structure of this kind is engineered to specific load paths; the correct part is what keeps those paths — and the aircraft's certified strength — unchanged. 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.
Because substitutions on type-certificated aircraft require approved data, the genuine part is the straightforward, compliant choice for this application. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation.
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.
