I used to work in the aerospace industry and we also had to have torque screwdrivers calibrated, and we are talking for 0-80 threads. The assemblers were probably damn close even if they didn't use a torque driver. My rule of thumb was torque until the head broke off then back off 1/4 turn. I guess that's why they got me out of there into management.
