This sums up Mike's entire fixation:

Allow me to explain one more time that I doubt that the fasteners
were designed to take shear loads in the threaded area NOT that there
were "four bolts running straight into the bottom of the plane."

That's because, again, the bolts were NOT installed in such a way as to
take a SHEAR load.

It was a TENSION load, running vertically through the plane. The
threads of the bolts and the nutplates were the ONLY things holding the
entire assembly to the aircraft.

Since you can't after several reiterations, manage to keep that in mind,
it's pretty damned obvious that you're never *going* to get it.

Everything else you wrote is just noise.

Is Mike Marron the pupeteer for John Mazor?
