I have looked over the Driggs Dart monoplane light aircraft for a while.I am interested in its design but steel and welding may be beyond my skills.I was wondering though with aluminum tubing if it was possible to create a version such as that in a reliable manner.I imagine it would be lighter and a small engine would compensate for it.I understand that there are aluminum versions of older aircraft out there such as the Airdrome kits and wonder if the same could be done of the Dart.I thank you for any words and advice over it.
