		  If I were building an airplane, wings would be wired as

they are built and 10' or so pigtails left at the fuselage

end coiled up for later routing into the fuselage and

>attachment to their respective destinations . . .but

with a "service loop" about 4-6" in diameter (12-18"

of slack wire) under the wing root fairing.

 

Should it become necessary to EVER remove the wings,

then cut wires and/or coaxes in the middle of their

service loops. When replacing the wings, permanent

splices (and mated coax cable connectors)...


	


Precisely the approach I used.  I would add that should I ever pull the

wings, I would add the connectors, one wire at a time, located such that

the connector will be inside the fuselage under the floorboards and out of

the weather, as opposed to under the wing root fairing.  The floor boards

will need to be removed to access the spar bolts anyway.
