Description
The MD41-229 is a genuine Textron Aviation GPS switch annunciator used to make or break an electrical circuit. It is applicable to the Skyhawk and Skylane. It carries an export classification of ECCN 7A994.
Because the MD41-229 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 Skyhawk and Skylane aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
Ratings, tolerances, and interfaces are what define an electrical part; matching the specified item keeps the system working as certified. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation.
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. For a regulated aircraft component, correct identification by factory part number is what guarantees the exact form, fit, and function the design calls for.
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.
