Aluminum is used because it is strong, lightweight, and does not easily corrode.
Its high resistance to corrosion means it will last longer in service. This is because when it is exposed to air, it forms a protective layer called 'aluminium oxide' which will help prevent corrosion. It is also extremely lightweight and so won't weigh down the plane as much. It's also malleable, making it easier to achieve the shape you'd want.
