Most of the gas welding of airplanes was steel, not aluminum. Aluminum welding was really only used on non-structural complex shapes like wing or control surface fairings and wing fillets. All high strength parts were what we now call 2024 alloy (was called 24S at the time, if I remember right) and is not considered weldable. All major structures, skins and such out of aluminum were riveted. Only soft pure aluminum parts can be torch welded, so that limits it to the above.
What adh2000 says, though.... You may be naturally extremely talented, but otherwise you have a lot of learning to do when it comes to torch welding, unless you are already a very experienced torch welder on other materials. Torch welding itself is a hard earned skill. Torch welding thin materials is harder. Torch welding aluminum sheet well is one of the hardest skills you will learn. Not trying to discourage you, quite the opposite... don't throw in the towel when you aren't getting perfect results in four weeks. It may take years to get good at it. Just like playing piano, it is solid practice that will get you there. No amount of reading, studying, watching videos, etc... is going to take the place of thousands of hours of practice.
I started self taught with the Linde Oxy-Acetylene handbook and a torch my dad bought when I was 13yrs old. I monkeyed with torches (mainly cutting) for a few years in industrial construction, then many years later went to work at an airplane museum in the restoration dept. I had a few old aircraft welders (one of which was a Linde welding engineer) teaching me. Still took several years to get to the point I could make welds I was really comfortable with. I have played with O/A aluminum welding, but I am not at all proficient at it. I can give it hell with a TIG machine, but it's still REALLY hard to get right with a torch.
In addition to the aluminum welding flux, you also need different goggles to weld aluminum versus other materials. The flux puts off a brilliant orange sodium flare that will keep you from properly seeing the weld. If you can't see perfectly, the metal just falls out on you.
I used to go to Oshkosh every year and hang out in all the technical seminars (part of my job, believe it or not!), including Tinman's (Kent White). He had a pair of standard welding goggles and his version side by side for the unbelievers (as I was at first). One look through both goggles and it is very plain. You can easily see the puddle start to form on the surface with his goggles. It is not a big glowing puddle like steel, but just a silvery looking change in the surface. Go past that and it's a hole. With the standard goggles, it was pretty much just a hole before anything obvious happened.
On edit... forgot to add, DON'T start learning on your car body panels!!! Once you have blown holes in it and ruined the metal, your panels are shot and useless. Get some junk bits to practice on and save the body work for when you are extremely confident in your ability (quite a while from right now). A torch weld is not really any stronger than a TIG weld, but you simply can't usually find a reasonably priced MIG that can weld aluminum that thin. The torch weld will be wider than the TIG (unless you can get your hands on a real good machine like a Dynasty with full wave and frequency variability) and likely softer, so you can planish it out and work it without it cracking as quickly. A bad torch weld will, of course be inferior to a good TIG weld, no matter what, and vice versa.
