Description
The 0550361-24 is a genuine Textron Aviation door — a covering that encloses or provides access to part of the airframe. It fits the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 0.03 pounds, and measures 3.1 (L) x 2.4 (W) x 0.1 (H) Inches.
Because the 0550361-24 is an original-equipment (OEM) part sourced directly from Textron Aviation, it matches the exact specification and placement called out in the aircraft's type design and maintenance data — assurance a generic substitute cannot offer.
Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
Panels, doors, and covers enclose and provide access to the airframe, and the correct part preserves fit, sealing, and aerodynamic surface. 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.
Because aircraft parts are governed by strict airworthiness and traceability rules, fitting the OEM part rather than an unapproved equivalent keeps the installation eligible and the aircraft's records clean. Genuine factory parts carry the documentation and traceability that maintenance and airworthiness records depend on — assurance a look-alike substitute cannot provide.
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.
