LATCH BAGGAGE DOOR

The S2455-1 is a genuine Textron Aviation latch baggage door used to hinge, latch, or operate a door, panel, or access point. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 0.11 pounds, and measures 3.2 (L) x 2.15 (W) x 1.5 (H) Inches. As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the S2455-1 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. Because it carries motion through a system, the exact part preserves the geometry the design depends on. Because substitutions on type-certificated aircraft require approved data, the genuine part is the straightforward, compliant choice for this application. Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value. Fitting the correct factory part the first time avoids the rework, removal, and re-inspection that an incorrect or unapproved part can trigger. Cessna traces to the company Clyde Cessna founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927; Textron Inc. acquired it in 1992, and since 2014 it has anchored Textron Aviation alongside Beechcraft and Hawker. With over 44,000 built, the Cessna Skyhawk is the best-selling aircraft ever made and is still produced today. Request a quote for S2455-1, or browse more Cessna Skyhawk parts on Flying411.
