What are various A/C made of??

Hi all

Well Im doing A-Levels in the UK where in Physics we investigate different materials (I am doing the materials used in aircraft and why they are used)

Some pointers would be great, from you guys who know what you are talking about..

For example, what are modern aircraft predominantly made from? (The airframe im talking about) .. Why are these materials used? And how have the materials used changed over time?

Many thanks Guys

Rich
