An Airbus A380 has many different rivets and major aircraft components. The aircraft itself has Six-Million individual parts, Three-Million are rivets alone. An aircraft Millitary Spec for a rivet is MIL-STD-171. In aviation an individual rivet can cost anything from Fifteen pence to Twenty Five pence. So this means that;

0.20p x 3,000,000 = £600,000

This is a massive £600,000 spent on rivets alone.
