Description
The 2421000-1 is a genuine Textron Aviation left-hand strut assembly that serves within the aircraft landing-gear system. 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 2421000-1 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.
Because gear components see repeated high stress, their material and condition are tightly specified — the right part matters for safety. 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. 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 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.
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.
