I've been lurking on these lists for years, but I've never sent a message until now - I couldn't resist J
I'm currently building an RV-10 and removal/installation of RV-10 wings is easy, in my opinion. I am biased though, because I built an RV-6A and it is a lot more difficult to install its wings because it uses ~ 76 bolts and the landing gear must be removed with it.
Removal of the wings is unlikely once flying, though unless you want to remove them for painting or you have trouble and need to land off-airport. Personally, I'm going to install wiring connectors in the wing root just to make it easier when I do remove the wings.

Attaching the wings looks like it might be a significant job on the -10. Removing and re-installing is not something that I would look forward to. What do listers really think the probability of removing a wing is likely to be, once the plane is finished and flying? Currently mulling over the REAL need for electrical connectors at the wing roots.
cheers,
Ron
