Aircraft Part E212CW

The E212CW is a genuine Textron Aviation component supplied for use on the aircraft, with its precise function defined by the aircraft's parts data. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991. As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the E212CW 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. Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated. 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. Because substitutions on type-certificated aircraft require approved data, the genuine part is the straightforward, compliant choice for this application. 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. 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.
