Aerolite is still widely used and I believe readily available, a google search showed up several suppliers. Skycraft certainly have it. I know that Dudley Pattison is using it on his Flitzer and he'll know the best sources - email is http://www.aircraftplywoodandtimber.co.uk/index.html

Aerolite is also popular with boat builders so check out chandlers.

I'm using Aerodux myself, messy but very easy to work with and easy to see where it all is.
