Our newest kit is now available and features the easiest construction techniques imaginable.

Steve Cohen, the lead designer, has spent years perfecting the construction methodology with the result that the newest SkyDart features a one piece fibreglass fuselage, new fibreglass wings, a one piece fibreglass tail-plane, fabric covered aluminium elevators and rudder, leaf-spring main undercarriage and torsion suspension nose wheel.

Perhaps the best method of showing how easy it is to build a SkyDart is to briefly describe the construction technique. (Most of you would already know that many other kit manufacturers say their aircraft is easy to build but it is not until you get it home and there are millions of parts that need to be 'prepared for assembly' that you really need to have a good look at your marriage certificate again)
