Some folks use only 8 bolts. When a spacer (crush spacer) is inserted between 
the WAF's, then you would only use 8 bolts for both wings.

Surely you mean the 16 bolts? ;-)

>From what I know, for all aircraft applications, you never put a washer 
under the bolt head. Just under the nut. The only exceptions would be:

- when the bolt head pushes on wood (then you use a wood washer)
- when you need to correct for a slope under the bolt head (in which case 
you make an asymmetrical washer/spacer to correct the slope ).

Moreover, just to make your life more difficult, you are allowed only two 
washers under the nuts. And thin ones, at that.

More on that to be found in the Gospel (Tony Bingelis's books) or the Old 
Testament (AC 4313-1-B standard)

Guys
Should the 8 bolts that actually hold the wings together have a washer
under the bolt head as well as the nut, or just under the nut???
