Our 172 has two screws missing from under the wing where 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		 
		
	
	
	it connects to the fuselage above passenger door. The size of those screws are quite big. My question is whether they are important to the stuctural integrity of the wing ? They may have come off during flight due to the vibrations. But it is still some hours before the next 100 hours. Are those screws important for holding the wing to the fuselage ? or are they only there to cover the holes, and there are some other bigger screws/nuts inside the wing that are doing the real work ? A speedy reply will be appreciated. P S  |
