Hey everyone.  Have always used the bolt in the wing drilled through the 
tube.  Have decided to go with a 1/4" nylon bolt through the fuse into 
tapped dowel.  Only using one wing adjuster aft, with a vertical slot in 
this hole so bolt will be tightened down with wings adjusted.

1)  Will tightening the bolt put undu stress on the front 1/2 of wing or 
will a washer eliminate this

2)  How long do the bolts need to be to keep from backing out, and is this a 
possibility.

3)  Should the bolts be changed regularly to prevent fatique.

Am not interested in rubber band, wire ties ect.

thanx in advance.
