I flew my first KR for 35 hours with the bolts exposed with no problems. I really couldn't tell any difference when I covered them.
I eventally sealed the stub to outer wing gap with white silicone and put on the spring fastened bolt hole covers that came with the plane.

Jones Sent: Sunday, June 06, 2004 8:46 AM To: KRnet Subject: KR> Wing Attach Joint Cover I have read several ideas for covering the wing attachment joints but haven't decided which one I will use. Is there any problem with flying with the joint and attachment bolts exposed, or is it mandatory that this joint be covered/faired for safe/stable flight? I think covering the joint is primarily for appearance but I could be wrong.
