Message: I'm looking for the teardrop diameter dimensions for the wing strut on a PBY-5A or similar aircraft. The plan is to mimic the shape for recreating the frame of a historic lakes racing car built in the 1940s, which was made from the wing struts from a PBY-5A. I have some leads on non-airworthy wing struts but would settle for copying the diameter. Thanks for any help/information you can provide.
