A crew had to go through collective thousands of hours of training, workers on the ground had to ensure that every single aspect of the machine was in working order and a national infrastructure of airports and traffic control had to exist to get the plane into the air in the first place. Materials had to be extracted and refined to exacting specifications, plans had to be developed and then edited, remade and edited again until they were nothing short of perfect.
