The Davis DA-2 is a light aircraft designed in the United States in the 1960s and was marketed for homebuilding.

[1] While it is a low-wing monoplane of largely conventional design with fixed tricycle undercarriage, the DA-2 is given a distinctive appearance by its slab-like fuselage construction and its V-tail.

Construction of the aircraft is sheet aluminum throughout, with the sole compound curves formed a fiberglass cowling and fairings.

[4] A major design consideration was ease of assembly for a first time home aircraft builder.

Examples of this include: few curved components, a V-tail is one less control surface to build, and each wing is made from two sheets of aluminum with no trimming involved.
