747-400 A check
Anyone know, roughly, how many man-hours it takes to do an A-check on a 747-400?

Appreciate that, which was why I didn't ask for a specific figure! Was just after an average ball park figure, or a rough range of figures, for an article - 20, 50, 100, 1000?!

Depends on the maintenance programme. Whether its an A1,A2,A3 or A4 etc. Haeco in HKG could do them in a 30 hour slot but it all depends on the amount of manpower thrown at it.

How about a 747 D check...the figures I have from other internet sources suggest for a European based 747-400 a minimum of 35,000 hours for its first D check (30 days) to a max of 100,000 hours and 60 days for the last one of its life. At a European labour rate of £55 / hour (including overheads etc) we would be talking about over £3,700,000 and 45 days for an "average" D check?
