Description
The 0532001-42 is a genuine Textron Aviation rib — an internal structural member that helps define the airframe's shape and carry its loads. It fits the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
As an original-equipment (OEM) structural part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the 0532001-42 is manufactured to the aircraft maker's specification for material, dimensions, and finish, and cross-references the type design exactly as documented in the maintenance data. For a structural member, the genuine correctly identified part preserves the engineered load paths and keeps the airframe configuration-correct.
Because the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
Structural parts like this carry and transfer loads through the airframe, so exact form and fit are essential to preserving the design's strength and fatigue life. On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front.
An unapproved or surplus substitute can introduce fit, material, or paperwork problems that surface at the next inspection; the genuine part avoids that risk.
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. With over 44,000 built, the Cessna Skyhawk is the best-selling aircraft ever made and is still produced today.
