A mostly aluminium airframe with composite parts where they save weight: control surfaces, fairings, the tail or the rotor blades. The A220: an aluminium-lithium fuselage with composite wings. This is how the Airbus BD-500 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.
