Description
The 0522641-1 is a genuine Textron Aviation fuel bay cover — a covering that encloses or provides access to part of the airframe. It fits the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the 0522641-1 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.
Panels, doors, and covers enclose and provide access to the airframe, and the correct part preserves fit, sealing, and aerodynamic surface. An unapproved or surplus substitute can introduce fit, material, or paperwork problems that surface at the next inspection; the genuine part avoids that risk.
For a regulated aircraft component, correct identification by factory part number is what guarantees the exact form, fit, and function the design calls for. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation.
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. The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is the most-produced aircraft in history, with more than 44,000 built since 1956, and remains in production under Textron Aviation.
