Description
The S3100-453 is a genuine Textron Aviation transponder gtx 33 supplied for use on the aircraft, with its precise function defined by the aircraft's parts data. It is fitted to the Citation Mustang, Skyhawk, Skylane, and Stationair. It carries an export classification of ECCN 7A994.
Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the S3100-453 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records.
Because the Cessna Citation, Skyhawk, Skylane, and Stationair aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
Supplied as a defined part in the manufacturer's catalog, its exact role is set by the aircraft's parts and maintenance data. Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated.
On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front. 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.
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. Cessna's Citation line, launched with the Model 500 in the early 1970s, grew into the best-selling business-jet family in the world, spanning today from the light M2 to the super-midsize Longitude.
