Even after I recounted my entire discussion with the crew from yesterday, emphasizing that the requirement was verified and bolts were ordered; the mechanic is positive it's not true. Once again I urged him to check his manuals. He comes back admitting that "apparently it's true". At least he didn't apply the TTY procedure so the existing bolts weren't over-stressed. The bolts never came in so, they said they'll get the bolts on order and call me when they're in. Based on what I've seen so far, I'm not depending on that. I'll have to call periodically to check.
He blasted them with his impact and they are perfect!
