Do you retire an airliner after 25 flights?

You do if each flight costs $1B and you can only get a couple flights a year.

If that airliner was built with 1970's materials/technology AND it had to withstand temperatures of over 3000 degrees and airspeeds exceeding mach 20 every time it was used, yes, I would retire it way before 25 flights.
