It’s a gently caress-off-huge castle nut that gets torqued to something like 150ft-lbs. Most of the main and nose wheel sockets I’ve seen fit a 3/4in drive breaker bar and torque wrench. Secondary retention past that varies.

I checked my manuals. I don't have anything really big, but I do have Gulfstream IV and Challenger 300. The procedure is broadly thus:

Tighten to A Bunch (300-500 in-lb), loosen to zero, tighten to Not Much (15-150 in-lb), rotate to next locking feature (do not exceed XXX in-lb). insert locking mechanism (bolts, cotter pins, flanged washer, etc). The main axle nut is tightened to seat the bearings, then tightened just enough to preload the bearings. It doesn't get godawful amounts of torque to hold it on.

Some casual googling indicates that widebody airliners are much the same; main nut torque in the 15ft-lb range.

This has been a fun derail, especially when you consider that sauce is the refuge of the inadequate pitmaster and that the addition of mayonnaise into anything creates an abomination unto the lord. These are facts.

Despite that, United got to reset their Incidents Reported In The News But Were Not News counter to 0 today, so that's nice.

I’d stump for ‘sauce is the refuge of the inadequate pitmaster’ because it’s a stone cold fact; the rest a bit less so.

For an aviation-related sauce anecdote, I had a coworker who made his "BBQ SAUCE" for a hangar cookout. He started with 4L of Big Red and 2L of Dr Pepper and boiled that down. Other things apparently happened after that, but I wasn't listening anymore.

It looked and smelled like Skydrol; I wasn't about to taste it.

Vice published a breathless article about good barbecue joints in Brooklyn, New York. For some reason they included the photo above. While I'm sure that meat is tasty, they managed to make it look like prison food. People made a lot of jokes on Twitter that day.

For all the guff I got for being not-so-on-the-side-of-NC-BBQ, this was my point from the get go. The meat is the star!

I'm also not against the white bbq sauce on pollo either.

Goddamn, the hits keep coming for Boeing.

The FBI sent letters to all the people on the Alaska Air flight that had the blowout to inform them that they may be victims of a crime. The letters also confirmed that the FBI is conducting a criminal investigation into the blowout. This is after the Justice Department opened up a criminal probe into it.

Reminder that the USG is largely a fetish--a fall guy--that's too often and too easily blamed for problems created/sponsored outside government. The buck doesn't necessarily stop there. There's circumstances where the clear road to improvement actually lies in government, such as this instance where improved oversight, reversal of regulatory capture, and a deterrent of criminal convictions are likely going to be important components of any good solution to the Boeing and airline maintenance problem.
