I'd have to figure on airplane parts, 25% of the cost could be on QC alone.

What is the expensive part you imagine about QC that isn't labor? I mean sure, you need the occasional destructive test and some fuel and hangar rent but mainly it is people doing the quality control checks.

I wasn't. That's why I figured 3% is ridiculously low.
