PLACARD

The S2800-1309 is a genuine Textron Aviation placard — a marking that identifies a control, limitation, or servicing point on the aircraft. It fits the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99. Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the S2800-1309 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records. Because the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants. Required placarding is a certificated detail of the aircraft, so the exact factory marking keeps the configuration correct at inspection. On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front. Genuine factory parts carry the documentation and traceability that maintenance and airworthiness records depend on — assurance a look-alike substitute cannot provide. Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value. Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated. 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. With over 44,000 built, the Cessna Skyhawk is the best-selling aircraft ever made and is still produced today. Request a quote for S2800-1309 or browse more Cessna Skyhawk parts on Flying411.
