Unsafe Condition

Repetitive tightening torque check may not be sufficient to prevent the lower inboard and outboard link fitting attaching parts of the left hand (LH) and right hand (RH) pylon from getting loose, which could lead to the failure of one of those fittings and the consequent separation of the engine from the wing.
