Is "Chevron Automatic Transmission Fluid Dexron III" ok for a Cleveland Brake Cylinder. Thanks in advance.
NOPE!
Interesting. Though the OP's question had a pretty definitive answer, the questions it led to when reading up on the three different specs was fascinating.
I discovered 5606 is the SUCK. Flammable, low performance, ancient disaster.
Cleveland says go ahead and replace with 83282 everywhere (it's totally miscible with 5606). Is that actually legal on a certified aircraft? (Please tell me it is!)
How about Aunt Jemima syrup? That's what 5606 turns into anyway.

Have a little fun. Put some aircraft hydraulic fluid in your car or motorcycle brakes. I made that mistake once.
5606 may be flammable but I'd rather use it than others that aren't. Lots of stuff in the airplane is flammable anyway...
Very generalized, a vendor such as Cleveland, Garmin, Whelen, Goodyear, didn't build the airplane. They may not even know exactly what aircraft their products are installed on so vendor service bulletins, letters, emails must be carefully evaluated as they can render an airplane unairworthy.
Cleveland didn't build the airplane or provide the flexible rubber brake hoses. Those buggers can run into the $1k of dollars to replace (such as Textron robbery style).
