Default Where to use Plywood/light ply

When scratch building and designing an aircraft where do you recommend using 5 ply plywood and also where would you use light ply?

The plane I am working on is not a 3D bird, just a low wing symetrical airfoil simar to a large GP easy sport.

I know you would use plywood for the firewall and wing attach points, where else in your experience would you use plywood?

I am assuming you would use light ply for the fuselage formers, wing saddle area. etc.

Thanks
