So, last year I bought a set of wings, as the ones I have are rather
crudely built & need alot of work...
I have the (apparently typical) problem of the bolt-holes WAFs from my new
wings not lining up with the holes on the fuselage...
My presently 'considered' solution, is to remove the wing-WAFs
places is just asking for mistakes IMHO.

Thank you Mark. With your info, I did a short Google search and came up
with this article:

So the point is that with one bolt on each fitting, only that one
fitting must lose friction in order to load its bolt in shear.
Thank you Mark.
I was actually in the process of drawing up the WAF's in SolidWorks to
illustrate the difference, but you nailed it right there.

Replacing the two bolts with one longer one and a spacer replaces two bolts
in single shear (not the best) with one bolt in double shear, which is far
