I've not seen one on AC's work, but here is a D check on a 744: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_yHtfGH0nI

Interestingly, BA does all their own work in-house in Cardiff, also not a low wage place. They seem to be able to manage to schedule repairs and do them on schedule. I was actually quite amazed that they can spend 6 weeks doing a D Check and schedule it for a regular longhaul flight the day it is complete and they meet the schedule.
