Description
The AF3502 is a genuine Textron Aviation matterhorn white 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.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the AF3502 is built to the aircraft maker's specification and cross-references the type design as documented in the maintenance data. Choosing the genuine part over an unapproved substitute preserves configuration control and simplifies inspection sign-offs.
Across the Cessna Skyhawk and Skylane fleet, correctly identified factory parts like this keep every airframe consistent and configuration-correct.
This is a cataloged factory part whose form, fit, and function are established by the manufacturer's approved data. Fitting the correct factory part the first time avoids the rework, removal, and re-inspection that an incorrect or unapproved part can trigger.
Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value. Because this is a component for a type-certificated aircraft, using the manufacturer's part keeps the installation within approved configuration and simplifies compliance.
Built by Textron Aviation, whose Cessna line was founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927 and joined Textron in 1992, this part carries one of general aviation's most storied names. With over 44,000 built, the Cessna Skyhawk is the best-selling aircraft ever made and is still produced today.
