6.19 Wing Struts (all J-Series)
 Each wing strut is a single lift strut which transmits a part of the wing load to the lower portion of the
fuselage. The strut consists of a streamlined tube bolted to two end fittings which attach to the
fuselage and wing.
WARNING
Do Not Tighten Strut Attachment Bolts. Metal fatigue may result. Bolt must be free to rotate.
