LOCK ASSY

The AS210PB is a genuine Textron Aviation lock assembly supplied as a built-up assembly of several components in a single installable unit. It is applicable to the Skyhawk. As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the AS210PB 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. Because the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants. As a factory-supplied item for a type-certificated aircraft, this part is defined by the manufacturer's specification and applicability data. 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. 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. Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value. 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.
