Description
The 0512008-13 is a genuine Textron Aviation tailcone assembly — a factory assembly of several components supplied together as one serviceable unit. It is applicable to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
Because the 0512008-13 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.
Because the Cessna Skyhawk 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. Because substitutions on type-certificated aircraft require approved data, the genuine part is the straightforward, compliant choice for this application.
For a regulated aircraft component, correct identification by factory part number is what guarantees the exact form, fit, and function the design calls for. 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.
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.
