Well,... there is a bit more to it than two bolts. There are the Servo connectors, there are the brake connectors, there are the gear connectors and on the UF there is a Aux fuel tank connection. All these connections make me nervous because on the Giant P-40 I had, the gear air connector failed and the plane cartwheeled on a belly landing. With a mid-wing section connected at all times, at least the gear is normally always connected and you can put keepers on those connections.
