CG,
This is absolutely correct. The SSE has a J-hook in the root rib of the wing, when you slide the wings in place you simply put a rubber band between the J-hooks to hold the wings in place. Trust me, this is more than enough to keep the wings on the plane, as there isn't any force that will be pulling wings apart. [/quote]

I agree, I've done countless violent snap rolls and other stuff and the rubber band system has never even given a hint that it might fail. I just don't see how there is any force pulling outward on the wing. Sometimes the simplest solution is the best. Using blind nuts in the root rib and nylon bolts wouldn't be difficult at all though.
