Description
The AV4080-3 is a genuine Textron Aviation air valve that controls the flow of fluid or air within an aircraft system. It fits the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99.
Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the AV4080-3 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records.
Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
Fluid- and air-system components are rated for specific pressures, media, and fittings, so the correct part is essential to a safe, leak-free system. On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front.
Fitting the correct factory part the first time avoids the rework, removal, and re-inspection that an incorrect or unapproved part can trigger. Genuine factory parts carry the documentation and traceability that maintenance and airworthiness records depend on — assurance a look-alike substitute cannot provide.
Traceable OEM hardware keeps an aircraft's maintenance records defensible at annual, pre-purchase, and pre-buy inspections.
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.
