The 4344-184-226 is a genuine Textron Aviation thermostat supplied for use on the aircraft, with its precise function defined by the aircraft's parts data. It is fitted to the Skyhawk and Skylane. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99, weighs 0.02 pounds, and measures 1.1 (L) x 0.6 (W) x 0.65 (H) Inches. Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the 4344-184-226 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records. Because the Cessna Skyhawk and Skylane aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants. Supplied as a defined part in the manufacturer's catalog, its exact role is set by the aircraft's parts and maintenance data. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation. Genuine factory parts carry the documentation and traceability that maintenance and airworthiness records depend on — assurance a look-alike substitute cannot provide. Traceable OEM hardware keeps an aircraft's maintenance records defensible at annual, pre-purchase, and pre-buy inspections. 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. 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.
