The finished and inspected parts are sent to the main plant of the
plane company, where the production line is located. The parts
are now ready to be joined together to form an airplane.
Sometimes there are production lines dedicated to the assembly
of certain parts of the plane, especially the wings and the
fuselage in case of very large planes.
After the whole airplane is put together, it is thoroughly
inspected to search for any imperfections or defects.
After the inspectors grant their approval, the plane is put through
a series of flight tests to assure that all its systems are working
properly and that the plane works smoothly without a hitch.
But that is not the final stage, after passing all these tests, the
plane is now ready to receive the "final touchups" which may
include internal configuration or painting, or any cosmetic work.
After this stage the airplane is finally ready to be delivered to the
customer.
