$250M / 71 frames = $3.5M/frame
Figure $0.5M parts, so $3M labor.
$3M / $100/hr (fully burdened) = 30,000 man-hours
30,000 man-hours / 8 weeks (24/7) = 22 mechanics
Wow. Sure some are pushing paper away from the airplanes, but that's a lot of labor.

$30 Million a day for EK to park their Whales. Wonder how things would be if the Load Limit initial test would have been 1.55 not 1.45?
Quite a few thoughts back in those days on the topic.
Even with todays CAD Simulations, and Physics Modeling S*** Happens.
