Refurbishing the interior is only half the work. What they do in terms of structural maintenance is truly amazing. The largest check is the D-check btw when the aircraft is stripped of all its paint and gets nearly completely disassembled. The first A380 will be due in a couple of years. It will be enough work on the fleet to provide a workforce the size of a small city with labour.

Only 1600 parts? I thought that just the motors had more parts then that.
