Does anyone know a the length of a parrotlet's wingspan?!

My friend urgently needs to know this for a project she is doing, but hers wont co-operate with being measured!

Fully stretched, a Pacific is usually between 5-6 inches per wing. So, this tiny bird could have a 12 inch wing span! No wonder they're such strong flyers eek eek eek eek nodding
