Can't blame Icelandair for doing that... the interim report is pretty clear! It looks like you would need to fabricate a new nut to the spec in the CMM. That's something that is hard to miss... so perhaps the nut was fabricated but the wrong one fitted? Or fabricated to the incorrect specs...? All speculation for now, we'll have to await the final report.
