The ABC article has a pic of a Pawnee with a great big dent in the left leading edge. I've seen some rough Pawnee's before, but I think that might give away it was involved.

Shouldn't matter if gliders are operating or not - every pilot should be looking out for all traffic - and following standard patterns - and I'd expect Radio's are mandatory so all pilots should let all others know where they are. From a pic on that dreadful dailymail site and ABC it looks like a Jab (2xfatalities) and a Pawnee. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-07-28/aircraft-crash-caboolture-paramedics-respond-significant/102660186

Thanks - the listed sizes they have are a bit different - but I've contacted Hughes to see if they can help. Aircraft Spruce don't have streamlined Al listed, but adding up the equivalent to the quote I got from Airport Metals leaves ~ $800 for shipping.

Hi all, After a few years of "life" I'm getting back into my Karatoo build. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a potential supplier for Aluminium Strut's (wing struts)? I tried Airport Metals (having purchased some materials from them previously) and they can't supply it. My other option is streamline round tube (which was the original spec) with foam/fibreglass. Thanks, Scott S.
