SKIN

The 0523929-3 is a genuine Textron Aviation skin that forms the contoured metal covering over the airframe structure. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 5.07 pounds, and measures 108.9 (L) x 10.25 (W) x 6 (H) Inches. Because the 0523929-3 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. Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common. 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. Because this is a component for a type-certificated aircraft, using the manufacturer's part keeps the installation within approved configuration and simplifies compliance. 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. The Cessna name is among the most recognized in aviation — founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927 and part of Textron since 1992, today a cornerstone of Textron Aviation. 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.
