A welded steel-tube frame carries the loads, with aluminium (and some fibreglass) skins over it. The Thrush crop sprayer: steel-tube fuselage under aluminium skins. This is how the Rockwell International S-2 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.
