Default Re: Bolts: Motor Mounts to Bell Housing- Safety Wire AND Lock Washers?

My working on SAC bombers forgetting a safety wire and having QC find after
the fact was a NO NO,
Ever lost a bolt from the flywheel?
Ever lose a bolt from a landing gear/motor mount bolt at 30.000 feet ?
I realize it is not exactly the same but.......Henry put these in place for a reason. he didn't drill holes in bolts for weight savings.
