Description
The MS242N is a genuine Textron Aviation quik freeze supplied for use on the aircraft, with its precise function defined by the aircraft's parts data.
This is a cataloged factory part whose form, fit, and function are established by the manufacturer's approved data. Check effectivity and supersession status for your serial number so you order the currently applicable part.
Traceable OEM hardware keeps an aircraft's maintenance records defensible at annual, pre-purchase, and pre-buy inspections. As configurations differ across serials and modifications, validate this part against your aircraft's approved data before purchase.
Because this is a component for a type-certificated aircraft, using the manufacturer's part keeps the installation within approved configuration and simplifies compliance. The value of an OEM part is as much in its paperwork and pedigree as its metal — both of which an aircraft's records require.
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.
Textron Aviation traces its roots to Cessna, founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927, and Beechcraft, founded there in 1932 — two of general aviation's most storied names, united under one company since 2014.
