Description
The 0513583-39 is a genuine Textron Aviation panel assembly 172s ELT ADF — a covering that encloses or provides access to part of the airframe. It is applicable to the Skyhawk.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the 0513583-39 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.
Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
A covering part like this is contoured to the structure, so the right one maintains both fit and the smooth external surface. OEM parts arrive to the specification the type design was certified against, preserving both airworthiness and the airframe's documented configuration.
Fitting the correct factory part the first time avoids the rework, removal, and re-inspection that an incorrect or unapproved part can trigger. Using the factory part number preserves configuration control, so the airframe stays consistent with its approved type design and the work is straightforward to sign off at inspection.
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. 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.
