CONTROL WHEEL ASSY-CP/AP

The 2660053-18 is a genuine Textron Aviation control wheel assembly cp ap that serves within the aircraft landing-gear system. It is applicable to the Caravan or Grand Caravan EX. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991. Because the 2660053-18 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 Caravan aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common. Parts in the landing-gear system are load-critical and often life-limited; using the specified airworthy part is not an area for compromise. Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated. Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation. 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 Caravan is a single-engine PT6-powered utility turboprop in continuous production since 1984, valued for its rugged versatility in passenger, cargo, and float operations.
