I have run across someone who insists that
6061 T6 is not "aircraft grade aluminum".
He claims that there are no certified parts made
from 6061. I find that hard to believe. Aren't there
certified aircraft with welded aluminum frames?

The LSA certified Zeniths are 6061-T6.
Aha!.
I see that Aircraft Manufacturing & Development Co. (AMD)
sells FAA certified SLSA Zodiacs.

Glad I could help. I have plenty of scrap 6061-T6 that you can have to tell
him to stick it up his A$$.
