It's a 747 mod, It's made to fit full-sized 747 fuselage assembly's inside, and transport from china.
I've personally process atleast a million in boeing parts. QC is strict, and all I do is finish up fixtures for trimming, or apply fixtures for drilling.

Do you have pictures of the Dreamlifter? I would love to see one disgorge a 747!
I am sure that QC is very strict. I used to work for BF Goodrich Aerospace and they made parts for Boeing and for Airbus.QC was very strict as you can't have a bad part fail and cause a plane to go down. I think what is happening now with Boeing is that they are rejecting so many outsourced parts that is is not worth sending the jobs overseas.
